Concern for Leeds Rhinos after Wigan Warriors player returns positive Covid-19 test following Challenge Cup semi-final
Both are now self-isolating under government guidelines.
The club have cancelled today's (Tuesday's) training session as a precaution while awaiting the results of the weekly tests for Covid-19 carried out on the rest of their squad and support staff on Monday.
The Rugby Football League (RFL) say test and trace analysis does not require any of the Leeds or Wigan players to self-isolate as a result of close contacts from last Saturday's game.
