As reported by Salzburg, some of those affected have mild symptoms and all are in quarantine as recommended by the health authorities in Austria.

Given the large number of those affected, the training sessions scheduled for this Wednesday have been canceled and have been replaced by a program at home.

After the positives detected after two days of rest, the hygiene and safety measures in the team environment were also reinforced, such as the cancellation of public attendance at training.

Salzburg’s next match is this Sunday in the Austrian league against LASK Linz. Salzburg has to face the second leg of the Champions League round of 16 against Bayern on March 8 in Munich (1-1 in the first leg).
