Liverpool will NOT be investigated by the EFL over the FORTY positive Covid-19 tests between players and staff that saw their Carabao Cup semi-final with Arsenal called off last week... before Jurgen Klopp revealed most were false

The EFL has no plans to investigate Liverpool over a number of false positive Covid-19 tests which led to the postponement of the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg against Arsenal last week.

Reds boss Jurgen Klopp revealed on Sunday that the club's Covid outbreak last week was due to 'a lot of false positives'.

The scale of infection as indicated by those PCR test results - which followed an initial round of lateral flow tests - led to the temporary closure of their training ground and ultimately the decision to postpone the cup match against Arsenal, which was due to be played last Thursday.
