Catalans Dragons will resume their Super League campaign against Salford on Monday after receiving a coronavirus all-clear.

The French club's last two fixtures, against Hull and Warrington, were cancelled after they reported a series of positive Covid-19 tests.

But a statement from the club on Saturday read: "Catalans Dragons have received the results of yesterday's (Friday's) round of squad testing for Covid-19 and all are negative.

"It means the Dragons will play against Salford on Monday at the AJ Bell Stadium."
