The Novel Coronavirus pandemic has somewhat rendered 2020 as unproductive and worthless as possible. Jobs, travelling plans, economic prowess, relationships and so many other facets of our lives have been impacted by this virus and it isn’t funny anymore since the reported second wave has been recorded massively in some European countries.
Just like any other part of our lives, the sporting fraternity wasn’t also spared at all with big names like almighty Cristiano Ronaldo, Zlatan Ibrahimović, Matuidi, Arteta and others all testing positive for the virus in the past.
As of now, Real Madrid have announced that Eden Hazard and Casemiro have both tested positive for COVID-19.
The former Chelsea playmaker cum Belgian winger and the Brazilian midfielder were among the group of players and staff who were tested at Valdebebas in the latest round of tests carried out yesterday.
Their tests came out positive, while other players and members of the coaching staff of the first team returned negative results.
A statement from the club read: “Real Madrid CF announces that our players Casemiro and Hazard have given positive results in the Covid-19 tests carried out on Friday morning.
“All the other players and the coaching staff of the first team, as well as all club employees who work directly with them, gave negative results in that same test carried out yesterday. Likewise, it is confirmed again that all, except for Casemiro and Hazard, have given negative results in the antigen tests carried out this morning.”
We wish these maestros speedy recovery as they strive to remain on top of the Campeonato Nacional de Liga de Primera División aka the La Liga Santander.
