Mendy quarantined as he may have caught coronavirus

As soon as a person is aware that he could have coronavirus, he has to self-isolate to prevent it spreading, according to the latest WHO advice. Mendy is following the advice religiously because, according to 'Daily Mirror', he will stay at home until it is known whether a family member is affected or not. 

He took this decision after the person showed symptoms. The test was carried out and therefore the player and his relatives are waiting to know the result. Until then, he will not return to training with Manchester City. 

He has still not shown symptoms. If the member of his family tests positive, he may be in quarantine for longer because he will have been in direct contact with someone affected. The ideal thing for him would be for this person to come back negative so that he could return to training as normal. 

He would be a considerable loss for the 'Sky Blues'. This season, the defender has made 23 appearances, 20 of them starts. He has become an important part of Pep Guardiola's team and it remains to be seen when the player will be able to come back.
