Juventus forward Paulo Dybala has revealed he has tested positive for Covid-19.

AC Milan later announced technical director Paolo Maldini and his son Daniel, who is in the youth team, had tested positive but were “both well” having self-isolated for two weeks.
A statement from the Serie A side read: "AC Milan confirms that Paolo Maldini, the club's technical director, became aware of contact with a person who subsequently tested positive for Coronavirus and began to display symptoms of the virus himself.
“He was administered with a swab test yesterday, the result of which was positive. His son Daniel, a forward in AC Milan’s youth team who had previously been training with the first team, also tested positive.
“Paolo and Daniel are both well and have already completed two weeks at home without contact with others. They will now remain in quarantine until clinically recovered, as per the medical protocols outlined by the health authorities.”
