CAF president tests positive for COVID-19

About four days after the President of FIFA, Gianni Infantino, went into self-isolation after testing positive for coronavirus, the President of the Confederation of African Football, Mr Ahmad Ahmad, has also tested positive for COVID-19.

Ahmed’s COVID-19 positive test result was contained in a statement made available on the website of the continental football governing body on Friday.

“The president after his arrival in Cairo on October 28, presented mild flu symptoms and submitted to the COVID-19 protocol.

”Today, the test results are positive and the president immediately self-isolate for at least the next 14 days at his hotel.

“All those who have come into contact with Ahmad over the past seven days, especially during his trip to Morocco for the Confederation Cup, have been informed and requested to take the necessary measures.”
