Dybala’s fans were reliever to see their idol’s complete recovery from the virus crisis, as they congratulated the player in the comments.
Juventus also confirmed the same in an official statement, revealing that his ‘double check’ test reported negative.
“Dybala performed, as per protocol, a double check with diagnostic tests (swabs) for Coronavirus-Covid 19, which came back with negative results. The player has, therefore, recovered and will no longer be subjected to the home isolation regime,” the club’s statement read.
Dybala’s Bianconeri teammates, Daniele Rugani and Blaise Matuidi, who had also tested positive, both had already recovered back in April.
Italy, one of the worst hit countries in the COVID-19 crisis, has over 214,000 confirmed positive cases, and the third highest death toll in the world at 29,684.
However, four clubs, Sassuolo, SPAL, Bolognaand Parma, were recently allowed by the Italian Govt to resume their training from 4th May.
Although, Serie A is unlikely to be back in action anytime soon. Vincenzo Spadafora, the country’s Minister for Sport recently said it’s still ‘impossible to give a date’ of the possible resumption of the Italian top flight football.
