OFFICIAL: Varane tested positive for COVID-19
Real Madrid have been dealt with a big blow ahead of thier crunch champions league quater final tie against Liverpool.
The news came after the latest round of testing which took place at 1 pm local time and now he is set to miss the Liverpool game which comes off this evening and also the El clasico against Barcelona three days later.
This will surely not be a welcomed news at the Real Madrid camp since Ramos has also been ruled out for a month due to the calf injury he got during the international break.
A three-man defence?
Last Saturday against Eibar, Los Blancos played a back three of Eder Militao, Nacho and Ferland Mendy, with Varane ironically rested on the bench.
Zidane might, therefore, continue with that system, which he has flirted with before.
