Fernandes, Rodriguez, Richarlison: Red list of Prem stars who could be STOPPED from going on international duty

MANY Premier League stars could be forced to miss international duty due to the strict coronavirus regulations.

Nations which have banned people from entering from the UK may not permit footballers from returning to their home countries.

There is also the issue around quarantining upon arrival back into the UK, which would see players forced into missing matches for their clubs while they self-isolate.

The countries most likely to not let footballers return are those in South America and Portugal.

Among the headline names potentially missing out during the upcoming international break is Manchester United and Portugal playmaker Bruno Fernandes.

Also under threat is Columbia's James Rodriguez, Brazilian pair Thiago Silva and Roberto Firmino, and Argentine pair Giovani Lo Celso and Erik Lamela.

Meanwhile, Wolves have the largest number of internationals who could be hit by the restrictions with TEN players potentially affected.

Burnley, Crystal Palace, Sheffield United, Southampton are the only top flight English clubs to not have any players at risk of missing international duty.
