Conte 'scared' after Tottenham clash with Rennes called off

Tottenham's Europa Conference League clash with Rennes is off.

Eight players and five members of staff have tested positive for Covid-19 from Spurs.

Their match against Brighton on Sunday in the Premier League is also under review.

Speaking earlier on Wednesday, Spurs manager Antonio Conte said: "Now, for sure, we are a bit scared because tomorrow we don't know what happens.

"Every day, we are having more positives. This is not a good situation.

"To speak about football today is impossible. The last situation made me very upset.

"The situation is serious. There is a big infection."
