Paulo Dybala has tested positive for the coronavirus for the fourth time in six weeks

In the same update he claimed he and his girlfriend were feeling much better, but it seems the forward is struggling to shake the illness.

Luckily [we are] much better, these days we do not have any symptoms," said Dybala. "I had stronger symptoms, I got tired very quickly, when I wanted to train, I was short of breath after five minutes. There we noticed that something was not right and through the tests the club did we were told that we were positive.

He added: "We need to complete all the discussions to ensure that if we do reach that stage, we'll do so in the utmost safety and security.

We are passionate about sport and don't want our athletes to get sick. "I'm passionate for football. Like many Italians, I initially found it strange that the championship could be interrupted or suspended but I think that even the most ardent fan understands that there wasn't an alternative." It is unclear whether this latest update on Dybala will impact this decision.
