Nicolas Pepe, Granit Xhaka, Alexandre Lacazette and David Luiz have become the latest pro-footballers to be pictured breaking social distancing government rules.

Arsenal have spoken to the quartet of ‘Covidiots’ who were filmed out and about this week.

Lacazette was standing close to someone valeting his car, while Luiz and Xhaka were having a kickabout in a park.

Gunners winger Nicolas Pepe was also pictured kicking a ball around with some friends.

The quartet, along with the rest of the Gunners squad, have been reminded of their responsibilities and the influence they carry as professional footballers.

UK government guidelines say you can only exercise on your own or with people you live with. Also, if you have to go outside, you should stay more than 2m (6ft) apart from anyone other than members of your own household.
