He Atlético de Madrid He has passed the UEFA coronavirus medical tests this Sunday, prior to the return of the Champions League. The members of the red and white squad have undergone PCR tests, prior to the competition dispute (their quarterfinal clash is scheduled for August 13 against RB Leipzig). It is not the first test that the players have undergone in recent days, as they all passed these controls before returning to training after a week of well-deserved rest after the end of the league. The team members tested negative and were able to exercise without problems.
The leaders of Simeone will receive the results during the day on Monday, before the team's training. If there are no positives, they will train with the preview of the clash against the German team on Thursday the 13th. It will not be the only test that the rojiblanco team passes. UEFA protocol dictates that clubs must pass medical examinations 48 hours before the match. Atlético plans to travel to Lisbon on Monday, August 10, therefore they will have to undergo another medical examination before landing on Portuguese soil.
