PSG have just confirmed that new Argentine boss Mauricio Pochettino has tested positive for COVID-19 just days after winning the Trophee des Champions.

His side pulled out a 2-1 victory over Olympique Marseille with PSG’s new manager seen hugging many players that will surely have to self isolate and get tested. The main player he was seen in contact with being Neymar.

He won his first bit of silverware with the club and has been on a high as it was his first trophy as manager and now his high must have come to an end with this positive test.

He looks set to miss at least their games with Angers and Montpellier and his side are already second in Ligue 1 and are unable to afford any more dropped points.
