Two players and a member of the Under-21 National team staff, currently in Reykjavik ahead of their qualification match for the European Championships today against Iceland, have tested positive for COVID-19, after a swab test carried out upon arrival at the airport revealed the results yesterday evening.

Of the three, one player is symptomatic and is being constantly monitored by National Team medics. The other two positive tests, who are displaying low viral symptoms, have already undertaken a second swab test to attain a second positive indication of COVID-19. The rest of the squad that arrived yesterday in Iceland have tested negative for another three swab tests performed in Italy at the beginning of the training camp.

The FIGC took action to promptly evaluate the situation, adopting all of the necessary measures, working in conjunction with UEFA and local health authorities. More information will be made available in the upcoming hours.
