Manchester United's official announcement is as follows:
Manchester United officials confirm that our Premier League match against Brentford at 19:30 on Tuesday, December 14 has been postponed and will be rescheduled in due course.
After the new crown test results of first-team staff and players are confirmed to be positive, we need to continuously monitor the epidemic situation. It has been decided to close the first team Carrington training center for 24 hours to help minimize the risk of further infection, and those who test positive are being isolated in accordance with the regulations of the Premier League.
Considering the cancellation of training and interference with the team, as well as the health of players and staff, the club asked to reschedule the game. The Premier League board of directors decided to postpone the game according to the guidance of the medical advisory team.
Manchester United regretted the inconvenience caused by COVID-19 to Brent Ford and the two football clubs of Manchester United.
At present, many Premier League clubs have suffered the impact of a new round of epidemic outbreak. Spurs have postponed the game against Ryan and Brighton last week due to 13 confirmed cases in the team. Many clubs such as Aston Villa, Brighton and Norwich have confirmed cases.
The FA said it was resuming emergency measures to deal with the rising new crown cases in England. The emergency measures taken will carry out more new crown tests on players and staff. Now all club staff must wear masks indoors and maintain social distance. In addition, the number of people regularly tested in each club has increased from 85 to 100
