Manchester United on Tuesday reopened their Carrington training ground following a coronavirus outbreak that forced the postponement of two Premier League matches. United closed Carrington for an initial 24 hours eight days ago and their matches at Brentford and at home against Brighton were subsequently called off. “Manchester United’s players have started a return to training at Carrington on a staggered basis,” the club said in a statement. “The complex was closed for first-team operations last week due to a Covid-19 outbreak at the club but opened again (on Tuesday) morning. United are currently sixth in the Premier League table having played two games fewer than most of the teams above them.
