Vlahovic investigation into COVID violations for Juventus medical

There will be an investigation into Dusan Vlahovic’s Juventus medical, as the local health authorities warn he could’ve broken COVID rules by leaving Florence early.

The then-Fiorentina striker had missed the previous Serie A match after testing positive for COVID-19.

He was placed into self-isolation and the moment he tested negative, he travelled to Turin for his medical, completing the transfer to Juventus for over €70m.

There had been suggestions at the time in late January that Vlahovic had broken COVID isolation rules by travelling early.

Now the local health authority (ASL) in Tuscany has signposted a potential violation of the self-isolation order, sparking an official investigation.

It was announced today that the ASL realised Vlahovic was in Turin via the media and a check found he had not been given the necessary all-clear to leave his home.

It is believed Vlahovic was asymptomatic and had already received both doses of the vaccine, as well as a booster shot.
