Juventus players Paulo Dybala and Daniele Rugani have tested negative for COVID-19 in a first control test since contracting the virus.

The pair, along with teammate Blaise Matuidi, were among the first in Serie A to test positive for the Coronavirus, leading the team to go into a quarantine.

Gazzetta Dello Sport now report that two of the players, Paulo Dybala and Daniele Rugani, have tested negative for the first control test.

The pair now await the outcome of a second test which will be conducted in the next few days to confirm the positive news.

Matuidi remains in self-isolation for now but will inevitably be retested in the weeks ahead.
