Football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has been released from the Portuguese national team camp after testing positive for Covid-19.
A statement released by the Portuguese football federation on Tuesday confirmed the 35-year-old is asymptomatic and feeling fine, but he must now undergo a period of self-isolation.
This means he will miss Portugal’s Uefa Nations League clash with Sweden on Wednesday and is also a doubt for Juventus’ upcoming fixtures against Crotone and Dynamo Kyiv.
The Serie A club are yet to make a statement but the Portuguese federation confirmed the rest of the Portuguese squad all returned negative Covid-19 test results on Tuesday, and Ronaldo is the only player who must miss the Sweden game.
Portugal have won two and drawn one of their first three games in League A Group 3 of the Nations League.
The scoreless draw in Paris on Sunday saw their first dropped points of the campaign.
