Manchester United - Brighton postponed due to infection with COVID 19

United – Brighton, the game of the 18th round of the Premier League, was supposed to be played on Saturday at the “Old Trafford” stadium, but was postponed.

The date of this duel will be announced later.

The health of our players and our staff is our priority.

The Premier League board made this decision after consulting with doctors. Also, all activities in the “Carrington” training complex will be canceled for a short period of time in order to reduce the risk of transmitting the infection. “It is with regret and disappointment that we announce this decision to our fans,”- Manchester United statement.

Earlier, the duel between Burnley – Watford and Leicester – Tottenham were postponed for the same reason.
