Today, Monday, a total of 31 new cases have been known, distributed as follows: 10 positive at Real, two at Barça, six at Betis, five at Cádiz and four at Celta and Elche.
In this holiday round, all the clubs are following LaLiga protocol and tests are being carried out on all the players. That is why many positives from both footballers and staff are being confirmed. Therefore, all positives, according to the protocol, must be quarantined for 10 days.
