A member of staff at Juventus has tested positive for COVID-19, the Serie A club says.
The news comes the day before the Italian champions are due to host Spezia in a league match in Turin.
"During the checks provided for by the protocol in force, a positive COVID-19 result emerged from a (non-playing) member of the team group who was placed in isolation," read a club statement on Monday.
Juventus, the club where superstar Cristiano Ronaldo plays, said it was speaking with health authorities to clarify what protocols are required for training and competition to continue.
Meanwhile in Germany, Werder Bremen's German Cup quarterfinal against Jahn Regensburg was called off on Monday due to coronavirus infections at Regensburg.
Resenburg said the entire team and staff were in isolation after several players tested positive for COVID-19 on Sunday, two days after manager Mersad Selimbegovic was diagnosed with the more infectious British variant.
The German soccer federation said it was working to reschedule Tuesday's game.
