Covid: positive assistant, Maradona placed in isolation

Friday Diego Armando Maradona turns 60, but risks not being able to celebrate them.

    In fact, the former 'Pibe de Oro', and current coach of Gimnasia y Esgrima in La Plata, was placed in solitary confinement in his home, after one of his assistants who had a bit of fever and cough, did the swab testing positive for Covid-19.

The club broke the news.

    Now also Maradona, who has had repeated contact with this assistant, will be subjected to a swab.

There is therefore a risk of missing the National Cup match against the Patronato, scheduled for Friday, during which special celebrations were planned on the pitch to celebrate the birthday of the former champion.

    Maradona is considered a patient at risk due to his health conditions and for this reason he is particularly monitored by his doctors.

On the occasion of the recent friendly against San Lorenzo (Pope Bergoglio's favorite team) he went to the bench with a special visor, similar to that of the astronauts' helmet, and the image made the rounds of all the Argentine media
