Real Madrid’s duo of Luka Modric and Marcelo have joined the growing number of players to have tested positive for the coronavirus.

However, the club did not reveal if the players were suffering any symptoms, but that they have been moved into quarantine in line with Spain’s health protocol and will miss Sunday’s league game against Cadiz.

“Real Madrid C. F. inform that our players Marcelo and Luka Modric have tested positive for COVID-19,” read a club statement.

Modric, 36, has four assists in 12 games this season while Marcelo has struggled for game time under Ancelotti.
