Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti is set to finally join his side in London ahead of their Champions League clash with Chelsea after returning a negative COVID test.
The Italian missed his side's clash with Celta Vigo over the weekend after testing positive for the virus, with his son Davide taking charge from the dugout instead. As per Spanish outlet AS, Ancelotti felt fine in the days following the result but was still returning positive tests for the virus, sparking concerns he could potentially be forced to sit out of the trip to Stamford Bridge.
Madrid are on the charge for their 14th Champions League title, with Ancelotti the man who secured their long-awaited 10th back in the 2014 final. The last-16 saw Karim Benzema net a stunning second-half hat-trick to bring them back from the brink against Paris Saint-Germain and win 3-2 on aggregate.
