Cristiano Ronaldo recovers from Covid-19

Juventus star Cristiano Ronaldo has tested negative for Covid-19 after nearly three weeks, the club confirmed on Friday.

Ronaldo first tested positive for Covid-19 on October 13 while playing with Portugal. He had been in self-isolation since returning to Italy.

“Ronaldo carried out a check with a diagnostic test (swab) for Covid-19. The exam provided a negative result,” the Italian champions said in a statement.

“The player has, therefore, recovered after 19 days and is no longer subjected to home isolation.”

Juventus next play at promoted Spezia on Sunday, with all matches now behind closed doors following a recent surge in Covid-19 cases, with a record number of over 31,000 people testing positive in a 24-hour period in Italy on Friday.
