He explained, “There are 5 cases in Tanta, 4 in Haras El Hedoud, 4 in Enppi, and one case in each of Talaea El Gaish, Wadi Degla, Aswan, the Arab contractors, and Ittihad Alexandria.

He concluded, “There are no positive cases in Al Intag Al Harby, as it was reported that the player, Bassem Morsi, was injured.”

Premier League clubs conduct medical swabs to check on their members before training resumes.

Each club performs medical swabs for 50 individuals, including players, coaches, and administrators.

Clubs still object to the resumption of the tournament, explaining its position due to lack of time, the absence of foreign players, and the spread of the Coronavirus.
