Darren Moore misses Sheffield Wednesday game after testing positive for Covid

SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY manager Darren Moore will miss Tuesday night's League One home game with Morecambe after testing positive for Covid.

Moore first contracted the virus last spring and after a spell in isolation, he took a further period of leave after developing complications which saw him suffer from pneumonia and blood clots on his lungs.

After recovering from Covid, he returned to match-day duties for the Owls final weeks of the 2020-21 season.

He has now tested positive for a second time and will be absent from Hillsborough.

Assistant Jamie Smith will take charge of the game against the Shrimps.
