Only 48 hours ago, the 2020/21 season in the Euroleague began, but it seems that the fears of some of Maccabi Tel Aviv's captains (who were not enthusiastic about Bartomeu's opening season format) are coming true.
This time the victim on duty is Barcelona, who announced today (Saturday) that their coach Ronas Jasikevicius has contracted Corona, while his assistant Darius Masculinas has also been found positive for the virus.
The Catalan club clarified that the two had entered isolation and were in good condition.
All other team players tested in the same test were found negative.
This is why group activity should exist without change.
Tomorrow (Sunday) a league game against San Sebastian and on Thursday an away game against Zenit St Petersburg in the Euroleague, are scheduled to take place as usual.
Barça will be coached in the upcoming games by David Garcia, Sharas' second assistant coach.
Just two days ago, Sharas 'team recorded a home win over CSKA Moscow 66:76 in the opening round of the Euroleague, but if the results of the two coaches are positive again, it looks like the positive momentum will be cut off and the Catalans' upcoming game against San Sebastian in the Spanish league postponed. Unknown.
