The players and staff from Bohemians have received negative results from their sixth round of tests for COVID-19, as part of the FAI’s pilot programme for a safer return to action for all Irish football.

FAI Medical Director Dr. Alan Byrne received the results yesterday after Bohemians were tested ahead of training on Thursday evening. All those tested have been informed of their negative result.

Six rounds of tests - on close to 900 players and staff at the four clubs - have now been conducted on the four European qualified squads and all results have been negative.

The FAI has now suspended testing for COVID-19 on players and staff from Dundalk, Shamrock Rovers, Bohemians and Derry City with immediate effect as part of the new pathway to a Safer Return to Football announced on Friday.
