Just like we know, there has been a surge in the coronavirus cases recently as part of the second wave of the pandemic. So it’s possible that the Juventus forward contracted the virus during the trip to France during the past weekend. And sadly, the 35-year old must have possibly been contagious when he had contact with Kylian Mbappe during the clash with the World champions.
The Portuguese Football Federation has released the following statement on their website after learning about Ronaldo’s health situation: “Cristiano Ronaldo was released from the work of the National Team after a positive test for COVID-19, so he will not face Sweden. The Portuguese international is doing well, without symptoms, and in isolation.”
On the other hand, Juventus-Barca scheduled Champions League fixture could be out of reach for Cristiano Ronaldo. According to the rule in Italy, Ronaldo is to isolate for at least 10 days after he tested positive for Covid-19. But Juventus will be facing Barcelona in the Champions League in 15 days. Truly, the news is putting both parties in tight situations.
