Atletico Madrid striker, Luis Suarez ‘tests positive for COVID-19 again’ and will be unable to take the

field against former club Barcelona at the weekend.

But before the second November World Cup qualifier in the CONMEBOL region, the striker returned

a positive Covid-19 result alongside left-back Matias Vinas, ruling him out of contention for Tuesday’s crunch

match in Montevideo at home to Brazil.

The news comes as a massive blow to Atletico and to the striker who will be ruled out of Saturday’s La Liga

clash with his former club Barcelona and the Champions League game with Lokomotiv Moscow midweek.
