The club said https://www.hamiltonacciesfc.co.uk/lee-hodson last week that defender Lee Hodson was placed in quarantine as a precaution after coming into contact with a player from another club who contracted the virus. They added that Hodson had tested negative.

British media reported that the player concerned was St Mirren goalkeeper Jak Alnwick, who is Hodson's housemate.

Last month, eight Aberdeen players who breached COVID-19 protocols and prompted three league matches to be postponed were reprimanded and fined by the club.
