Rugani, Matuidi from Juventus recover from COVID-19

(Sports) – Daniele Rugani and Blaise Matuidi who play for Juventus have fully recovered from COVID-19 and no longer need to self-isolate.

They are two of three Juventus players who tested positive for the virus last month. Both of them were asymptomatic, but the third Paulo Dybala had symptoms.

“Daniele Rugani and Blaise Matuidi underwent, as per protocol, a double check with diagnostic tests (swabs) for the Coronavirus-COVID-19. The tests came back with negative results. The players have, therefore, recovered and are no longer subjected to the home isolation regime.”

– Juventus statement
