All today’s tests for the Italy Under-21 squad came back negative for COVID-19 after the Iceland game was postponed, but the Republic of Ireland kick-off changes.
The Azzurrini were stopped on their flight to Iceland by the local authorities after a series of positive COVID-19 tests between players and staff.
As a result, the European Under-21 Championship qualifier had to be postponed.
The squad returned to Tirrenia today and another round of swabs came back negative, so the outbreak has so far not spread any further.
