The Wuhan pneumonia (novel coronavirus disease, COVID-19) outbreak is spreading worldwide, with many football stars having been diagnosed one after another, and today (22nd) the Spanish Real Madrid Club de Fútbol confirmed that the legendary Zinedine Zidane has also been diagnosed.
After Spanish soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo and Brazilian legend Ronaldo Jr. contracted the disease, retired French legend Zinedine Zidane, who is the head coach at Real Madrid, has also been diagnosed, and Real Madrid confirmed the news on Twitter earlier today and expressed its support for Zidane and hoped he would recover soon.
The statement issued by Real Madrid does not provide further details, so it is unclear whether Sydan has any symptoms of the disease, but all the club’s players and coaches have been tested for the disease, and Sydan is currently under quarantine, with assistant coach David Bettoni in charge of the head coach.
