Manchester United is the latest club to get affected again by the virus. After Norwich City, Arsenal, Leicester City, and Aston Villa are said to be the clubs affected by the variant as well.

The League announced 42 positive tests for Covid on Monday which is the most ever recorded in a single week. As of now, 2 fixtures are canceled: Brighton vs Tottenham and Brentford vs Manchester United. 

Premier League news outlets state that the clubs' worries that the slow pace of their vaccination programs; had a negative impact and left the majority of players facing a wait to receive the booster jab.

The Challenges Faced by the Premier League Clubs

However, Wolves are the only top-flight EPL club set to meet Boris Johnson's target of boosting all over-18s by the end of the month; though Leeds and Brentford are also progressing in this situation. Many of the players have not been vaccinated with the second dose after October. 

The new possible postponement of the Premier League will bring more challenges for the club and the players. With the World Cup in Qatar closing in, this will clash with the fixtures; and create massive congestion which will impact the player.

However, it is to be said that the Premier League will not close down as a whole. But there will be new protocols and guidelines to follow to ensure the safety and smooth progression of the competition.

European treble winners in men's football history

In football, a team wins a treble when they win three major trophies in a single season. Winning the continental treble means winning the premier national league competition, the main national cup competition, and the main continental trophy, for UEFA, which is the UEFA Champions League or UEFA Europa League.

Though winning the Europa League is also considered a treble, it is not accepted wholeheartedly by the pundits and fans as winning the UEFA Champions League. 

Till now, 9 European clubs have been able to win the continental treble. Before we discuss all the European treble winners in men's football history, we must know about the types of Trebles we have in football. 

Barcelona is the only club to win multiple trebles with both their men's and women's team, completing the feat in 2024.

Continental treble

This is considered the actual treble in football where a team go on to win the national league, national cup competition and the main continental trophy. Celtic Football Club in 1966-67 became the first team in football history to win a Continental treble. Till now, 22 men's teams have won the Continental Treble, with 30 being the total number of times. In Europe, only 8 football teams have been able to accomplish the feat.

Domestic treble

Generally, for most of the footballing nations, winning a domestic treble is not possible since they do not allow first-division teams to win any secondary cup or league. A domestic treble includes winning three national competitions, including the national league title, the national cup competition, and one secondary competition. Countries which were under British or French possessions once allowed domestic trebles to happen. Celtic with 8 domestic trebles, and Rangers, with 7, are the most successful teams when it comes to winning domestic trebles.
