Renan Lodi returns to training at Atletico Madrid after coronavirus rumours

Renan Lodi was back training at Atletico Madrid on Friday, revealing he feels "very good" after a delayed return.

Diego Simeone's squad resumed duties at the club's facilities last Saturday, though the Brazilian was absent amid media speculation he had tested positive for coronavirus.

Atleti made no official announcement but seemed to confirm the story by posting a picture of the absent left-back on Twitter with the caption: "Renan Lodi salutes you from home. See you soon on the pitch!"

The 22-year-old was asymptomatic, Marca reported, but had to test negative before he could resume work at Atleti's facilities.
