Ex Man U star, Ashley Young tests positive for Covid-19 ahead of Inter showdown against AC Milan

Inter defender Ashley Young has tested positive for Covid-19 and is self-isolating.

The Serie A side announced the news on Sunday via a brief statement on their official website.

The club’s statement reads: “Inter announces that Ashley Young tested positive for Covid-19 following the test carried out yesterday [Saturday] in Appiano Gentile. The English footballer is already in quarantine at his home.”

Young is therefore set to miss Inter's clash with city rivals AC Milan. The duo are scheduled to meet in Serie A next Saturday, October 17.
