He would have to self isolate coming from Spain.
If he has been in a football bubble he shouldn't have to. I imagine he has been tested regularly while with Madrid and the national side. I believe it is an exception for athletes where it isn't like a regular holiday (Kane in Bahamas for example).

I think there is special dispensation for elite athletes, but I might be wrong. That Pervis has just gone straight from Watford to Villareal, so I don't think it's the same as Doris the receptionist coming back from Benidorm

Fucking footballers, I had to cancel my holiday :cry:.

Surely they can quarantine at the flashy new training centre hotel complex? Still have access to the training facilities, but could train apart and still feel a part of the squad.

Probably already linked but its definitely worth putting up again. This guy is absolutely off the charts and will completely change us as an outfit. Im excited to watch Spurs play again?

:LOL: I'm getting neg reped all over the place.
I understand your question though. I have thought the same regarding overseas transfers as have not seen anything official. Only know about teams going to play fixtures are exempt.

I think its the same as most things COVID, very confusing and makes very little sense.

Knowing Doris, COVID is the least of her worries in Benidorm.

“Travellers from Spain currently have to isolate on arrival in the UK but when it comes to elite sportsmen, there are exemption rules which means a player would only need a negative COVID-19 test before travelling as well as MRI tests undertaken first in Spain.”

What is all this bollocks slagging off Ben Davies and also this back 3 chat.
1) Reguilon is a hell of a player and a brilliant upgrade and exactly the quality we need
2) Davies is a perfectly capable player and will be a great squad option who will get plenty of matches
3) Jose very rarely plays with a back 3, it will still be a back 4 but we will have a better first choice LB, simple as that
Davies is a solid player but I'm not sure I've ever seen anybody a) misplace as many simple passes and b) have a complete inability to beat a player.

Fullback has been a real weakness for us and Davies is a big reason for it.

I thought this but didn't Kane have to self isolate?

Maybe there’s a distinction allowed for elite athletes who have been observing stringent protocol in their training bubbles and elite athletes who’ve been sat next to a pool somewhere?

With Reguilon and Docherty it's a shame we don't have the kind of DM who sits deep like Dier used to but can spray the ball about like Pirlo. Would be such a balanced side, can't ask for everything though lol.

Maybe RM can throw Modric into the Bale deal!

It doesn't seem to be Jose's intention given the midfielders we already have. We already signed a DM this window and he's more of the go em type and not really know for passing skills.
