England duo Mount and Chilwell forced to isolate after Scottish international Gilmour’s positive Covid-19 test

Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount is isolating, along with England team-mate Ben Chilwell, following Billy Gilmour’s positive Covid-19 test.

Scottish international Gilmour featured at Wembley on Friday night and will sit out his country’s final group game against Croatia tomorrow.

Club-mate Mount started for the Three Lions while Chilwell was an unused substitute in the 0-0 draw.

England play their final Group D fixture against table-topping Czech Republic tomorrow evening.

A statement by England said: “As a precaution at this time and in consultation with Public Health England [PHE], Ben Chilwell and Mason Mount are isolating after interaction with Scotland player Billy Gilmour at Friday’s match.

“The pair will be kept away from the rest of the England players and wider support team, pending further discussions with PHE.

“The entire squad had lateral flow tests on Monday afternoon and all were again negative, as was the case with Sunday’s UEFA pre-match PCR tests.

“We will continue to follow all Covid-19 protocols and the UEFA testing regime, while remaining in close contact with PHE.”
