Milan coach Stefano Pioli is self-isolating at home after testing positive for
coronavirus, the Serie A club announced on Saturday.
The
Italian league leaders said Pioli, 55, was not displaying any symptoms and that
all other test results for players and staff came back negative.
"Stefano
Pioli has tested positive following a quick test carried out this morning. The
health authorities have been informed, and the coach... has gone into
quarantine at home," the club said in a statement.
Milan
cancelled a training session scheduled for Saturday but are due to resume
preparations for next weekend's trip to Napoli on Monday, pending checks set
out in the health protocol.
Pioli's
side are unbeaten in Serie A this season, winning five of their opening seven
matches, and are two points clear of Sassuolo.
Napoli, who lost their appeal over a 3-0 defeat and one-point deduction for failing to turn up to play Juventus last month, are another point back in third.
