Saturday’s visit to QPR now “very doubtful”

The Swans visit to Queens Park Rangers on Saturday is now rated as very doubtful due to the outbreak of Covid in the QPR camp that led to their fixture tonight against Sheffield United being called off.

Speaking on Talksport this morning Rangers boss Mark Warburton said “We had four people come down positive with Covid, and we’ve had two more overnight displaying symptoms.

“We have some unvaccinated players who’ve come into close contact as well…I’ve got 10 isolating.

“It’s really frustrating.  We were looking forward to the game. I was very clear in the media leading up to the game – Bramall Lane is a great place to go and play football. Sheffield United have picked up, they’ve changed about their formation, they’ve got a really talented squad – as a group were very much looking forward to the game.”
