Real Madrid worried about players after Ronaldo's positive case

Cristiano Ronaldo hit the headlines this Tuesday after the Portuguese FA announced that the striker has tested positive for coronavirus. It has occurred during the middle of the international break. 

The Portuguese say that no teammate of Cristano Ronaldo has tested positive so he will be the only player to be out of the Sweden match. Nevertheless, just two days ago, the Juventus striker played his last game for the national team, something which has set alarm bells ringing. 

Not in the Swedish camp, but in previous sides. In this sense, 'AS' publishes that Real Madrid are concerned about three footballers who who played against Cristiano Ronaldo during the last week. 

Firstly, Portugal and Spain faced each other on 7th October at the Jose Alvalade. A match which Sergio Ramos played in, but they were not on the pitch. Ronaldo went off in the 72nd minute and Ramos came on nine minutes later. 

Nevertheless, the Real Madrid captain had a photo with Ronaldo and Pepe after the game in the dressing room.

Then, last Sunday, Ronaldo played against France which saw Raphael Varane and Ferland Mendy feature. Mendy did not play, but the central defender did. 

On social media, you can see there was a hug between Varane and Ronaldo on the pitch at the end of the 0-0 draw. These images have concerned Real Madrid.
