Relive Paulo Dybala's stunning strikes for Juventus so far this season. Watch Serie A on ESPN+. Wembley Stadium displays blue lights on its arch to support for NHS workers during the coronavirus outbreak. Zlatan Ibrahimovic launches a fundraiser to "kick coronavirus away" in typical Zlatan fashion.
Juventus and Argentina soccer forward Paulo Dybala has tested positive for coronavirus but has no symptoms, the Italian Serie A club said on Saturday, making him the third Juve player to be infected so far.
Fellow Juventus teammates Daniele Rugani and Blaise Matuidi both tested positive for the virus earlier this month.
"The player [Dybala], in voluntary home isolation since March 11, will continue to be monitored," the Turin club said in a statement. "He is well and asymptomatic."
A source told ESPN earlier this week that Juve players Gonzalo Higuain, Sami Khedira and Miralem Pjanic had all left Italy after being given permission by the club.
Italy's grim tally of coronavirus cases and deaths has continued to soar, with officials announcing new day-to-day highs: 793 dead and 6,557 cases. The country, the heart of western Europe's rampaging outbreak, now counts 53,578 known cases.
More than 60 percent of the latest deaths occurred in the northern region of Lombardy, whose hospitals have been reeling under a staggering case load that has left intensive care beds hard to find and respirators in dire supply. The new increases come nearly two weeks into a national lock-down in a desperate bid to contain the spread of the virus.
