The Portuguese star of Juventus Turin, Cristiano Ronaldo, in quarantine for two weeks after positive tests for Covid-19, is absent from the list of players summoned for the clash against FC Barcelona, this Wednesday in the Champions League (9 p.m. )
The 35-year-old striker, top scorer in C1 history (130 goals), exceeded the minimum quarantine time of ten days, but needed a negative test, no later than Tuesday evening, the day before the match , to hope to find his lifelong rival, Lionel Messi.
He posted and then removed a comment against the reliability of PCR testing
But the record holder for Portuguese national team goals (101 goals in 167 caps) and his club waited in vain for the necessary negative test. According to Portuguese television TVI, CR7 was even “Once again tested positive for Covid-19” Tuesday. The reunion between the two legends is therefore postponed to the return match, on December 8 in Catalonia.
In the meantime, CR7, who is showing no symptoms, is living in solitary confinement in his Turin home, from where he is posting images on social networks showing him keeping in shape. In the last, he had also initially shown forcefully and unambiguously his annoyance and skepticism vis-à-vis the reliability of PCR tests. But he withdrew this comment after a few minutes, to settle for one: “I feel good and in good shape! “
