Coady admits Wolves concern over Olympiacos trip

Conor Coady admits Wolves' players are concerned about the risk of coronavirus in Athens.

UEFA rejected Wolves' request to cancel Thursday's Europa League last-16 first leg against Olympiacos after the Greek club's owner was diagnosed with the COVID-19 virus.

And Coady says there is worry amongst his teammates.

He told the Express and Star: "That's the thing really. You go home to your wives and kids after the game so that's the priority.

"We need to make sure it's right when we're going home but yeah, we read everything, we see everything.

"We've seen the game postponed tonight between Manchester City and Arsenal but as players there's not a lot we can do. All we can do is train, prepare, listen to our manager and play."
