New positive for coronavirus at Deportivo Alavés. Before traveling to San Sebastián to play a friendly, with 5,000 people in the stands, before the Royal Society, the club has carried out the pertinent medical tests and has detected a positive within the group. As the protocols mandate, he is isolated at home and does not travel to the capital of Gipuzkoa.
At the beginning of the week, players who had tested positive for COVID-19 or had some close contact and could not even train were incorporated. It turned out that it was Edgar Méndez, Javi López and Toni Moya. They have already recovered their good health and, since Wednesday, they have all been at the disposal of Javi Calleja.
Apart from this new positive, the rest of the Albiazules players have passed the antigen test and they are traveling right now to Donostia. It is possible that Florian Lejeune is seen making his debut, who has come transferred from Newcastle but it would be very hasty for Mamadou Loum to do so, who has only completed one training session.
