Valencia player tests positive for COVID-19
In accordance with the established protocol, the player is quarantining at home.
In the PCR tests carried out on the Valencia Basket men’s team before the Endesa League game that the taronja squad will play tonight vs. Herbalife Gran Canaria, one of the players had a positive result. By express wish of the player, the Club will not make his name public and requests respect for him and his family members.
Following the established protocol, this player has been isolated immediately and is at home, in good condition and asymptomatic. A backup test will be performed to confirm this diagnosis.
The rest of the squad and staff were negative in the tests prior to the game vs. Herbalife Gran Canaria, so the game will be played with the absence of the isolated taronja player.
