Sixth case of Covid-19 at PSG. This Tuesday morning, Gianluigi Donnarumma learned that he was positive and must therefore respect a week of isolation as required by the new health protocol that the Professional Football League (LFP) will send to clubs. Or five days in the event of a negative test or total absence of clinical signs. The Italian goalkeeper joins five teammates who have already tested positive in the previous days: Lionel Messi, Nathan Bitumazala, Juan Bernat, Sergio Rico and Danilo Pereira. Information revealed on social networks and confirmed by RMC Sport.
But the most annoying concerns the rest of the Parisian group. Donnarumma started Monday night in Vannes (4-0) in the Coupe de France. He therefore traveled and shared moments with the workforce, in the field, in the locker room, transport or at the hotel. Many players are identified as contact cases. According to the new government provisions, vaccinated contact cases are no longer obliged to isolate themselves. However, they must test themselves immediately and then perform two new tests two and four days later.
The new LFP protocol now requires professional staff to be tested 48 hours before a match anyway. Whatever the vaccination status of club members. The Parisians will be tested once more on Friday before the weekend’s trip to Lyon.
