AC Milan have announced that two of their players and three other members of the team have tested positive for coronavirus.
In the official statement made on Monday, AC Milan announced the results of the COVID-19 tests carried out on the team over the weekend.
Goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma and winger Jens Petter Hauge were the two players who returned a positive test, as did three other members of the club’s first team.
All five cases are asymptomatic and each of them has gone into a period of self-isolation in their respective homes.
A subsequent test was carried out on the team on Monday and no new positive case was discovered.
A statement on the club’s official website read: “AC Milan announces that the results received last night from the laboratory found a positive swab by Gianluigi Donnarumma, Jens Petter Hauge, and three other members of the team group.
“All are asymptomatic, were immediately subjected to home isolation, and the local health authorities were informed.
“Today the whole team was tested again, as per protocol, and no new positivity was found.”
Milan host AS Roma in a trick Serie A outing later tonight and will now be forced to line up without the reliable Donnarumma in goal.
