It's true that the corona virus storm in the Premier League has not subsided. Now it is Arsenal defender Sead Kolasinac's turn to test positive for COVID-19. According to the BBC, this news was first announced by the Football Federation of Bosnia-Herzegovina. The 27-year-old player tested positive for the corona virus.
Finally, Kolasinac played the full match against the Dutch national team, in the UEFA Nations League match on Sunday (15/11/2020). In that match, Bosnia-Herzegovina lost 1-3.
Kolasinac will also be absent when Bosnia-Herzegovina face Italy. Not only that, the former Schalke defender will also miss several matches with Arsenal.
Sead Kolasinac will certainly be absent when Arsenal face Leeds United in the Premier League, Sunday (22/11/2020), and Molde in the Europa League (27/11). In fact, Kolasinac has the potential to be absent when Arsenal host Wolverhampton Wanderers, 30 November.
Sead Kolasinac himself became the second Arsenal player to have tested positive for the corona virus in the past week. Before Kolasinac, Arsenal first lost Mohamed Elneny because of Covid-19. The 28-year-old player was exposed to Covid-19 while defending his country, Egypt. Elneny's news positive for Covid-19 came out ahead of Egypt's match against Ghana in the African Cup Qualification.
Sead Kolasinac and Elneny are likely to miss the 2020-2021 Premier League match week nine. Arsenal will play Leeds United at Elland Road, Sunday, November 22, 2020. So far, Arsenal itself has not made a positive statement regarding Kolasinac.
In my opinion, losing Sead Kolasinac may not be a big headache for Arsenal coach Mikel Arteta, but not with Elneny's absence. Because, Elneny is a permanent resident in Arsenal's midfield this season, while Kolasinac is a substitute player.
Arteta must rack his brains so that losing Elneny does not affect Arsenal's game at home to Leeds. Because Arsenal need three points from Leeds in order to boost its position in the standings. Arsenal is now in 11th place with a collection of 12 points.
For this season, Kolasinac has only played in the Premier League once. The left-footed player was mostly played by manager Mikel Arteta in the Europa League and League Cup, where he has started five times in both competitions.
Overall, the Sead Kolasinac case adds to the list of players who have tested positive for the corona virus. Previously, the Premier League confirmed that as many as 16 people had been affected in the past week.
That is the information about Sead Kolasinac Arsenal Defender who is Positive for Covid-19, I hope this information is useful.
Thank you for reading. Stay safe and Stay Healthy. Health is Wealth.
