Real Madrid midfielder Luka Modric has tested negative for COVID-19 after his Croatia teammate, Domagoj Vida, tested positive.
There was plenty of fear in the Spanish capital that Modric would end up testing positive, after having taken a photo with Vida the day before Croatia's match against Turkey last Wednesday.
According to Marca, the tests done by the Croatia squad did reveal that Inter midfielder Marcelo Brozovic and a member of the coaching team are also carrying the virus.
Croatia will take on Sweden on Saturday night in the Nations League.
