Eight Premier League Brazilian players banned from playing this weekend

Eight Premier League players will be stopped from playing for their clubs this weekend.

This comes after Brazilian football authorities triggered a FIFA rule to prevent them from appearing.

Premier League clubs agreed not to release players to Brazil this international break, as they would have had to quarantine for 10 days upon return.

However, FIFA rules state that players would then be ruled out for five days following the international break.

The eight players will be unavailable for 10-14 September fixtures with Manchester City, Liverpool, Manchester United, Leeds United and Chelsea.

The players involved are Gabriel Jesus, Ederson, Alisson, Firmino, Fabinho, Fred, Raphinha and Thiago Silva.
