Further Covid concerns for Tyrone ahead of All-Ireland semi-final against Kerry

"It is anticipated that all outcomes will be known by Monday."

Tyrone are going to need every card in their deck as they face the monumental challenge of taking on Kerry in the All-Ireland semi-final next Sunday. Kerry have been blasting teams away, including Tyrone, from the season started, and they don't look like slowing down. Tyrone were already hit with Covid last week when several players, and manager Feargal Logan, had to miss their quarter-final tie with Monaghans due to the virus.

Because of this the entire squad and management team are being tested with a number of players self-isolating.

"Further to a number of positive Covid19 tests with members of the Tyrone senior football panel and management, prior to last weekend's successful Ulster Championship final in Croke Park, it was decided to have all panellists and management tested for the virus.

"While outcomes from these tests are awaited a number of players are self-isolating; it is anticipated that all outcomes will be known by Monday and preparations can then be made for the forthcoming All-Ireland semi final with Kerry.

"During the past week Tyrone GAA has continued to comply, fully, with the guidelines and directives that have been issued by the Public Health Authority and by Croke Park."
