Premier League clubs must reassure players there will be no repercussions if they are unwilling to risk their health by returning to action during the COVID-19 pandemic, former England manager Sam Allardyce has said.

“Getting the players fit in four weeks could be done, but that’s the least of their worries. I think the biggest challenge for players will be dealing with the mental side,” Allardyce wrote in a column for The Times. Clubs will hold an emergency meeting later on Monday to vote on a return to group training as part of “Project Restart”, which envisages a resumption in June.“If they’re too scared ... they won’t be able to perform to their best and then they’ll start getting criticised. Some players won’t want to play and that has to be respected.”

“There are pressures on players to deliver. The manager is a boss who has immense power over your next selection,” Carneiro, who left the London club after falling out with then manager Jose Mourinho, told the Times.
