Argentina's Emi Martinez and Emi Buendia will have to stay in a hotel for ten days after Aston Villa permitted them to fly to South America for World Cup qualifiers, violating the Premier League's collective agreement not to allow travel to red-list nations on Sunday.

The Spanish league has also conceded defeat in its attempt to prevent players from participating in World Cup qualifiers in South America – at least for the time being. The Court of Arbitration for Sport dismissed La Liga's claim that a triple-header of matches would take place too soon after the league's restart next month.

The Villa duo — goalkeeper Emi Martinez and midfielder Emi Buendia — have decided to only participate in Argentina's first two World Cup qualifiers against Venezuela and Brazil, respectively, and to sit out the game against Bolivia. They will still miss a Premier League match versus Chelsea because they are being isolated in a hotel room picked by the government with no obvious chance to exercise outdoors.
