English football could have taken another step towards resuming the league season after the English Football League (EFL) published its second set of coronavirus test results.

With 1030 tests carried out between May 25 and May 27, it has been confirmed that three individuals at two clubs have tested positive for Covid-19.

While the full details of the positive tests are not disclosed, Fulham have announced that two of the three are members of their playing squad.

Both Fulham players, who will remain unnamed unless they choose otherwise, have returned to self-isolation in line with league and government guidelines.

Blackburn Rovers have also confirmed that their captain, Elliott Bennett, tested positive for Covid-19 during the latest round of testing.

A statement read:

“Having initially submitted a negative test last Friday (May 22), Bennett took a second test on Monday (May 25), which has now provided a positive result.
“The 31-year-old, who is asymptomatic and feeling no ill effects, will now self-isolate at home for the next seven days and provided he develops no symptoms, he will, in line with medical protocols, return to training with his Rovers team-mates on Friday June 5.”
