Real Madrid boss, Zinedine Zidane has contacted Covid-19

Real Madrid have been dealt a huge blow following reports that their manager, Zinedine Zidane has tested positive for coronavirus.

Recall that the Los Blancos suffered the embarrassment of tumbling out of the Copa del Rey to Spanish third tier side, Alcoyano, in midweek.

Real Madrid announced the news in a statement on their official website that Zidane will have to isolate immediately.

He will miss the fixture against Alaves at the weekend, and will now only be allowed to return to club facilities once he provides a positive test.
