The number of COVID-19 cases per football league is a question on everyone’s mind these days. The ebb and flow of the virus around the world has left our leagues in different states of recovery.
Here we’ve made a list of the number of COVID-19 cases per football league and the number of COVID-19 cases in their region of the world.
The list of the number of COVID-19 cases per football league comes in no particular order, but we will save the best for last-so be ready.
Up first on the list of the number of COVID-19 cases per football league is the Premier League. As of the July 5, 2020 round of testing, there have been zero new cases within the league. Overall, the league has had a total of 18 cases since the first round of tests beginning back in May.
The Premier Leagues region, the UK, has recorded 287,000 total cases since the start of the pandemic. But, the UK is seeing an overall downward trend in cases.
Next up on the list of the number of COVID-19 cases per football league is LaLiga. LaLiga has not been very forthcoming in sharing their case numbers.
The last update on the league showed 8 positive cases in May 2020. But there hasn’t been any more current updates since.
Spain overall has recorded over 250,000 total cases and is also on the downward trend.
The list of the number of COVID-19 cases per football league continues with Bundesliga-the league that shattered the return to play timeline.
Bundesliga was the first of Europe’s major leagues to return to the pitch back on May 16, 2020. The league has reported 10 positive cases.
Germany as a whole has reported nearly 200,000 cases. The country is also seeing a decline in cases.
Onward and upward on the list of the number of COVID-19 cases per football league is Serie A. This is another league with few current updates. As far as we know, Serie A recorded 20 cases among players.
Serie A’s region, Italy, has over 240,000 total cases. Once again this European country is on the decline for new cases.
Our list of the number of COVID-19 cases per football league continues next with French Ligue 1. As of July 5, 2020 the league has recorded only one new positive case.
Overall, the league hasn’t been updating their numbers, we know of at least five positive cases between players and staff members.
France as a whole has a recorded nearly 170,000 total coronavirus cases.
Moving on on the list of the number of COVID-19 cases per football league, we have Liga MX. The last update on the number of cases was back on June 14, 2020-totaling up to 35 positive cases.
Mexico overall is seeing an opposite outcome than Europe in its total cases. Cases are at 268,000 total and still climbing.
We’re almost done with this list of the number of COVID-19 cases per football league. Next up is the National Women’s Soccer League.
The most recent update on cases within the league occurred with the Orlando Pride squad. They recorded 10 total cases and had to withdraw from the Challenge Cup.
The NWSL dealt with that quickly and efficiently and has not seen an outbreak like that since.
We close out this list of the number of COVID-19 cases per football league with the MLS. The MLS restart is underway which is causing some controversy because of the surge in cases.
Happy that #MLSisBack tonight
And
Thinking they should cancel

As of July 7, 2020 the league has recorded 18 positive cases within the bubble-and the tournament has just begun.
The MLS and NWSL are both within the United States-which isn’t looking pretty in its coronavirus containment. The U.S. has hit over 3 million total cases and is continuing to break records every single day with daily new cases.
So while other countries and leagues are containing the virus and reviving the beautiful game.
The U.S. is doing what it does best-ignoring what everyone else says.
