The Italian has revealed that the virus has caused a “serious problem” for the club with five staff members also forced into self-isolation.
Antonio Conte has confirmed a Covid-19 outbreak in his Tottenham squad that has seen eight players test positive for the virus.
Spurs’ preparations for a Europa Conference League clash with Rennes on Thursday night have been significantly disrupted by the outbreak, with five staff members also contracting the virus.
Under UEFA rules, if the club still have at least 13 players available then the game should still go ahead, but Conte has suggested that it is an unnecessary risk.
