French international, Paul Pogba, has tested positive for coronavirus
and faces at least 14 days of self isolation that implies he will be nowhere to
be found when the pre-season training starts on Wednesday.
The result was revealed by his national team coach, Didier
Deschamps, when he named his squad for the two Nation League matches that will
come up later in the year. Pogba had to be replaced by 17-year old Eduardo
Camavinga.
“I’ve completed at the minute a last change in the list,
because Paul Pogba, who was previously on the list, unfortunately for him he
carried out a test yesterday which was returned as positive this morning. So at
the last moment he had to be replaced by [Eduardo] Camavinga,” Deschamps told a
press conference.
Manchester United have on the club’s website, wished the
midfielder a speedy recovery ahead of the new season.
Another France international, Tanguy Ndombele, is also
believed to have tested positive for the virus.
