Tottenham and Leicester City legend Gary Lineker is in self isolation.

The former England striker and Match of the Day pundit is concerned about possible coronavirus exposure.

His son, George, has displayed some symptoms related to the illness.

Lineker confirmed the news on Monday morning tweeting: "In self isolation as @GeorgeLineker has symptoms. They're not the regular ones, but complete loss of sense of taste and smell. Odd these have not been pointed out much. Been nearly a week and has spent time at mine. I've been vigilant, hand washing/distancing but isolation it is."

It is unclear how long his son's self isolation will last, and how long Lineker will remain away from his work with Match of the Day.
