Euro 2020, Busquets positive to the covid: Spain with bated breath

Sergio Busquets, captain of Spain, positive for coronavirus one week after the debut of the Red Furies at Euro 2020. The challenge with Sweden is scheduled for June 14th. Busquets, asymptomatic, returned to Barcelona. The player’s close contacts, including some federal staff members, are in solitary confinement. The other players in the selection tested negative. The national team will not play the friendly scheduled on Tuesday against Lithuania: the Under 21 will be on the pitch. The rules allow Spain to wait until 12 June to decide whether to replace Busquets with another player. In any case, the Barcelona midfielder is destined to miss at least the first European match.
