Former Tottenham and England striker Darren Bent has called for a 'secure bubble' to be put in place for English football over a four-week period to help stem the flow of coronavirus cases.
The Premier League recorded 36 new Covid-19 cases in the latest round of testing, following the league high of 40 recorded the previous week.
Five Premier League matches have now been postponed due to Covid outbreaks at clubs, the most recent being Aston Villa's game against Tottenham Hotspur, due to be played at Villa Park on Wednesday 13 January.
