Fans of West Ham United have been reacting to a report on the Hammers’ first-team squad returning to training.
On Tuesday, the Premier League released a statement regarding the tests of players and staff of top-flight clubs due to the current viral outbreak and following that, @westhamfootball relayed that no Hammers players tested positive and none had refused to train.
So, when the news was relayed by @WHUFCFZ, fans aired their opinions on the matter.

What do we think?
As can be judged from these responses of West Ham supporters, they are clearly delighted that all of those tested at Rush Green have come back negative for the current viral outbreak.
Hopefully, now, the Hammers will maintain an adequate level of social distancing as outlined in the club’s announcement which revealed that they would be returning to training (per West Ham).
