Italy Makes U-Turn, Closes Stadium After COVID-19 Case Rises Again

Italy will make a U-turn due to the increase in COVID-19 cases after just one month allowing fans to return to the stadium.

It is said that the new government decision will take effect on Monday repealing a rule stating that 1,000 supporters could attend the stadium to watch a football match.

Last Sunday, COVID-19 cases in Italy reached more than 21,000 cases leading to new measures to combat second-wave infection.

The report was released just hours before AC Milan confirmed that their players Gianluigi Donnarumma and Jens Petter Hauge were among the five members who had been confirmed positive for COVID-19.

Both players will now be forced to isolation. In fact, they will also miss AC Milan’s match against Roma on Monday.

Earlier, it was reported that several other players, including popular Juventus player Cristiano Ronaldo, tested positive for the virus in the past few weeks.
