According to the statement, Ronaldo is “good, symptom-free and isolated”.
The 35-year-old Juventus striker played for Portugal against France in the Nations League on Sunday and in a friendly against Spain last week.
Ronaldo will now miss his country’s next Nations League game against Sweden on Wednesday, as well as the upcoming Juventus games, which include a Serie A clash with Crotone and a Champions League group game against Dynamo Kyiv.
International break
Despite the increasing cases of Covid-19 worldwide, many footballers have left their clubs to play international games.
However, some clubs have not approved players for their country, including the Austrian club RB Salzburg, whose players have been called up for Mali, Cameroon, Zambia, Austria and Hungary.
The striker has scored two league goals in two games for Juventus so far this season – one against Sampdoria and a brace against AS Roma.
He also scored two goals when Portugal beat Sweden 2-0 in the Nations League last month.
He then helped Juventus to win the Serie A title after the league was resumed.
