More than two-thirds of Premier League footballers are now double-jabbed for the COVID-19 vaccine, the league has confirmed.
The vaccination of stars in England's top flight has been a hotly discussed topic, especially during the international break when a number of players revealed their vaccine status. England manager Gareth Southgate even said some players were deciding against getting jabbed after seeing conspiracy theories online.
Tammy Abraham and Mason Mount revealed they have had their vaccinations, but Phil Foden, Fikayo Tomori and Jesse Lingard did not want to comment on the subject.
The Premier League has revealed things are now moving in the right direction, releasing a statement which reads: "The Premier League can confirm today that 81 per cent of players have received at least one COVID-19 vaccination dose, with 68 per cent now fully vaccinated.
"Vaccination rates are collected by the Premier League on a weekly basis and the League continues to work with clubs to encourage vaccination among players and club staff.
