PSG Player Florenzi Is Positive For COVID-19, Absent Against Bayern

JAKARTA - Paris Saint-Germain defender Alessandro Florenzi has tested positive for COVID-19 and will miss the Champions League quarter-final first leg at Bayern Munich.

As quoted by Reuters on Monday, April 5, Florenzi's team-mate and fellow Italy international Marco Verratti also missed Wednesday's match in Munich after testing positive on Friday.

In France, a positive test result for COVID-19 requires a mandatory quarantine of 10 days.
