Real Madrid boss, Zinedine Zidane has tested positive for COVID-19, the Liga giants have revealed.
The Frenchman, who has been seeing serious questions asked of his future at Santiago Bernabeu, will now enter a period of self-isolation.
He had been on the touchline for a shock Copa del Rey defeat to Alcoyano on Wednesday, with the Blancos slipping out of that competition after being humbled by third tier opposition.
