Arsenal hit by second coronavirus blow as Kolasinac tests positive

The defender has tested positive while on international duty with Bosnia-Herzegovina and will now miss the Premier League game at Leeds

Sead Kolasinac has tested positive for coronavirus and will miss Arsenal’s Premier League clash at Leeds United this weekend.

The Football Association of Bosnia and Herzegovina has confirmed that the Arsenal defender produced a positive test result on Wednesday morning having trained with his national team on Tuesday night.

Kolasinac will not be included in Bosnia’s squad to play Italy on Wednesday and will certainly miss Arsenal’s game at Elland Road on Sunday. He is also a major doubt for next week’s Europa League clash against Molde.
