About four Arsenal players have been accused of violating the lockdown protocol set aside by the government to stop the spread of the novel Covid-19. France international player, Alexander Lacazette, Brazilian star David Luiz and about two other players of Gunners have been talked to by the club after pictures and videos emerged of them breaking the lockdown rule.
According to reports, Arsenal has contacted the players since the video and pictures came online showing the moments they broke the lockdown rule in their respective places.
