JAKARTA - Danish player Robert Skov and a team assistant have tested positive for COVID-19. They have already been discharged ahead of the friendly against Sweden.

The Danish football association revealed that their national team squad has decreased significantly because eight other players, including Barcelona's Martin Braithwaite and RB Leipzig player Yussuf Poulsen, are undergoing independent isolation.

They are confirmed to miss Wednesday's match due to possible contact with Skov or with his assistant.

Quoted Antara from Rueters, Wednesday, November 11, head coach Kasper Hjulmand and assistant Morten Wieghorst are also undergoing independent isolation.

Skov, who plays as a Hoffenheim winger in the Bundesliga, tested positive for two tests after arriving at training camp Monday night without experiencing symptoms.

Denmark will also lose seven Premier League players, including Kasper Schmeichel, Andreas Christensen and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, after England tightened travel restrictions from the Scandinavian country following a widespread COVID-19 outbreak on mink farms.
