Lille coach Christophe Galtier has confirmed that Renato Sanches, Jonathan Ikone and Jonathan Bamba have contracted coronavirus.
The trio was said to have tested positive for COVID-19 and were absent from Lille’s 2-1 friendly victory over Mouscron on Saturday.
Galtier said the players were infected during a recent eight-day rest period.
Renato Sanches is currently in his hometown, Portugal and need two negative tests before he can be cleared for traveling back to his football club. While, Ikone and Bamba are in France and will likely be back on the team, probably Monday.
