Mason Mount will be reminded of his responsibilities by Chelsea after the midfielder broke his self-isolation, it is is understood. The 21-year-old was spotted playing five-a-side football with West Ham’s Declan Rice at a centre in London on Sunday.
It comes after Chelsea revealed in the early hours of Friday that the winger Callum Hudson-Odoi had tested positive for coronavirus. As a result players, coaching staff and a number of the backroom team were forced to self-isolate in line with government health guidelines.
Mount broke those self-isolation guidelines when he met Rice and will be reminded of his responsibilities.
The Premier League is suspended until 4 April owing to the coronavirus pandemic.
