Chiellini, on Cristiano's positive: “He's sunbathing …”

Giorgio Chiellini, defender of Juventus Turin and the Italian national team, assured this Tuesday that his Portuguese teammate Cristiano Ronaldo, who tested positive for coronavirus, is “serene” and “sunbathing.”

“Cristiano is fine, he is serene, sunbathing. When he is well, he will return”, Chiellini said, when answering a question about Cristiano's conditions during the press conference prior to the Nations League match against the Netherlands on Wednesday.

The veteran Italian defender stressed that the increase in infections in society and in the world of football was foreseeable and that it is essential to “keep playing”, following the rules of the health protocol.

“We must be prepared, we must continue, I am convinced that we must continue, carefully, but we cannot stop. For two reasons, one is economic and the other is social.“, he assured.

Chiellini also considered it “difficult” for football to create a bubble like the American NBA did to try to limit infections.

“A bubble is difficult, football is different. We already have a half bubble, when there are positives in the group you focus until there are two negative buffers”, He said.
