Juventus forward Paulo Dybala has tested positive for the coronavirus for the fourth time in six weeks, according to reports.

As per Spanish programme El Chiringuito, the Argentinean has had four tests since contacting the virus, with most recent coming back positive.

The 26-year-old recently spoke out about fighting the disease, and explained how he had been struggling to breathe. In the same message he claimed that he and his girlfriend were feeling much better, but it seems the forward is struggling to shake the illness.

"Luckily [we are] much better, these days we do not have any symptoms," said Dybala.
