Liverpool legend Kenny Dalglish released from hospital following positive coronavirus test result

Sir Kenny Dalglish has been released from hospital just two days after testing positive for coronavirus.

The 69-year-old Liverpool legend was admitted on Wednesday with an infection but was showing no symptoms of the deadly virus.

However, following routine checks, Dalglish tested positive for Covid-19 on Friday. The former Scotland forward is now self-isolating at home.

"People may think my name got me the best of care but every patient in the NHS gets the best of care," Dalglish told The Sunday Post.

"As a nation, we are lucky to have them and I wish them all well as they work tirelessly to help the country through this pandemic."
