Manchester City's partnership with the NHS is facilitating 1,000 coronavirus tests a day at the Etihad Stadium.

The Premier League champions have been praised for opening their campus doors to 26,000 health and social care staff since the pandemic took hold.

City’s home is providing key workers with drive-through testing and has trained more than 350 nursing staff, including those working in the Nightingale hospital.

Discussions between the club and NHS determined specific areas in which they could help and City moved to announce the gestures they have made during the crisis on Friday night.

‘We feel proud to be playing even a small role within a wider community effort that has once again shown Manchester’s strength of spirit, its resilience and togetherness,’ chief operating officer Omar Berrada said.

‘We are acutely conscious of the role we can, and should, play in supporting our city. It was abundantly clear from the outset that we would be able to help, but we wanted to understand how we could do so most effectively in order to best support.

‘We remain steadfast in our commitment to supporting Manchester over the coming weeks.’

The Etihad Stadium is also being utilised for what the club describe as a ‘bespoke centre for rest, relaxation and exercise’ for NHS staff. The site will be used for a variety of different purposes as the health service’s needs evolve.

MP for Manchester Central Lucy Powell said: ‘The manner with which the club has responded to the challenges that our community has been presented with demonstrates a genuine desire to understand the real issues people are facing.

‘I am really proud of the what the club is doing during this difficult time, and the leadership they have shown.'
