The alarm goes off in Elche, coach Jorge Almirón has tested positive in a PCR test. The Argentine is waiting for a new confirmation test, which will be carried out today, but the club has already started to carry out more tests on the squad and direct contacts.
This news occurs just one day before the decisive match against Osasuna, a direct rival in this first measure of the season. The Navarrese occupy the last position of the table and are three points behind the people of Elche, who are sixteenth. The match at Martínez Valero is presented as an opportunity for both teams to breathe a little and try to close 2020 in the best possible way.
