Tottenham manager Antonio Conte said on Wednesday that eight players and five members of staff had tested positive for coronavirus and he expected more confirmed cases.

Spurs are due to play a crucial Europa Conference League game against Rennes on Thursday and UEFA has said the match is due to take place as scheduled.

"Every day we are having people with Covid, people who were not positive yesterday. This is not a good situation." "The situation is serious. There is a big infection. We prepare for the game against Rennes, but it is very difficult."Now, for sure, we are a bit scared because tomorrow we don't know what happens."

The new Omicron variant has caused global concern over signs that it can transmit faster than previous strains and fears that its multiple mutations could help it evade immune defences provided by vaccines. No deaths have yet been associated with the variant.An emotional Conte admitted the situation was "so strange and incredible".
