Watford have confirmed that they are following UK government guidelines regarding the coronavirus outbreak and say they will continue to do so.
Yesterday it was revealed that the Premier League has announced a ban on the pre-match handshake between players and match officials until further notice due to the outbreak, in a bid to prevent the spread of the corvid 19 virus.
Meanwhile, postponements have affected the Six Nations, Formula One and Serie A among other sporting events.
Watford have said they are following the official UK government guidelines as their lead source of advice and have encouraged all staff to do likewise, by visiting the relevant online update notices.
Additionally, the club have stated that sensible extra measures with regards to training ground access have also been implemented and that they feel further comments from any individuals representing the club would be inappropriate.
