Juventus star, Cristiano Ronaldo is free to play for the Italian champions again after fully recovering from the deadly coronavirus.

The 35-year-old won the 19 day battle over the disease after testing positive while on international duty with Portugal earlier this month.

The statement from Juventus read: “Cristiano Ronaldo carried out a check with a diagnostic test (swab) for Covid 19.

“The exam provided a negative result. The player has, therefore, recovered after 19 days and is no longer subjected to home isolation.”

Recall that Juventus were without the five-time Ballon d’Or winner for their previous four matches, including Wednesday’s Champions League Group G defeat to Barcelona, winning just once in that time.

However, the former Manchester United man will be available for the Serie A giant’s game away to Spezia on Sunday. [Sky]
