CRISTIANO RONALDO HAS tested positive for coronavirus, the Portuguese Football Federation has confirmed.
The 35-year-old is said to be “doing well, without symptoms, and in isolation”, with no further positive tests reported in the squad ahead of Wednesday’s Nations League match against Sweden.
The PFF confirmed in a statement: “Following the positive case, the remaining players underwent new tests this Tuesday morning, all with a negative result, and are available to Fernando Santos for training this afternoon, in Cidade do Futebol.
Juventus forward Ronaldo had played in both of Portugal’s matches so far during the international break.
Ronaldo started against Spain in Lisbon, coming off late on during the second half of the goalless draw, and then played the whole of the Nations League fixture against France in Saint-Denis on Sunday.
He had scored in each of his Serie A appearances this season, including a brace in the 2-2 draw against Roma on 27 September.
