As talks are taking place to find out the ideal time for football to return in the UK, Manchester City striker, Sergio Aguero, has said that players are scared about the prospect of a return to action as the Covid-19 pandemic continues.
The English Premier League is hoping to restart the season’s action on June 8, which would mean that players would be expected to return for training by May 18.
The Premier League’s current champion’s record goal scorer said: “The majority of players are scared to return because they have children and families.
“I’m scared, but I’m with my girlfriend here and I am not going to be in contact with other people.
“I am locked in my house and the only person I could infect is her”.
He went on: “They are saying that there are people that have but don’t have any symptoms but they can still infect you. That is why I am staying here at home.
Aguero believes that when players do return to action, they will be ‘quite nervous’ but also ‘extremely careful’.
