Madrid/UNI: Spanish tennis ace Rafael Nadal has said he has tested Covid-19 positive after returning to Spain from Abu Dhabi where he took part in an exhibition tournament last week.

The former World no. 1 said in statement: “I have tested positive for Covid in the PCR test that was performed on me when I arrived in Spain."

“Both in Kuwait and Abu Dhabi we passed controls every two days and all were negative, the last being on Friday and having the results on Saturday," he said.

“I am having some unpleasant moments but I hope that I will improve little by little. I am now home bound and have reported the result to those who have been in contact with me," he said.

The Spaniard returned to tennis court in the Mubadala World Tennis Championship in the UAE after a prolonged foot injury.
