Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos has tested positive for coronavirus, the La Liga club said on Tuesday. Ramos was sidelined with an injury he picked up during the last FIFA break and was not expected to return to the squad in the next few days, so now he will spend some more time away from the team as he recovers from Covid-19.
He missed the Clasico 2-1 win over Barcelona on Saturday and also the Champions League quarter-finals first leg against Liverpool last week.
His COVID-19 infection is unlikely to halt his return to action, although it does mean he will be kept away from Real's training ground until he produces a negative test.
Ramos has played 670 games while scoring 101 goals for Real since joining from Sevilla in 2005 but has an uncertain future with the Spanish champions as his current contract expires at the end of June.
Real have suffered more injuries than any other side in La Liga this season, but their troubles have not affected their form lately.
Zinedine Zidane's side have won their last six matches in all competitions and Saturday's win over Barca took them one point behind leaders Atletico Madrid
