Manchester City left-back Benjamin Mendy has confirmed "those around me" have tested negative for coronavirus.

The France international also thanked fans for their support in an Instagram post while he was self-isolating as a precaution after paramedics suspected a member of his family had contracted COVID-19 earlier this week.

However, Mendy's relative was given the all clear when results of the test were released on Saturday morning.

In an Instagram post, the City defender told his followers to abide by the guidelines given by the World Health Organization (WHO), who are combating the virus causing problems around the globe.
