The defender went to a party without the club’s permission and will be away until his negative for coronavirus is confirmed

The Barça defender went, without permission from the club, to a restaurant to celebrate a birthday where all the security rules that set out the protocol of phase 1 were broken: the security distance was not kept at any time and about twenty people gathered , when the allowed limit was fifteen. The club’s reaction has been immediate. The player has been removed from the group and hardly be against Mallorca for the proximity of the duel.

The Barcelona protocol
Barcelona has already started the planned protocol of LaLiga. Semedo has been removed from the team this Thursday and subjected to the coronavirus test. If he gives negative, he will be able to play, although both he and his teammates must go through a temperature control the same day of the game and before entering the Son Moix stadium.
Only if it is positive is it to be isolated and quarantined until it passes two controls where it is negative.
Semedo joins the list of controversy
Semedo thus joins the list of players who have broken the strict security protocol established by LaLiga in preventing Covid 19. The first were four Sevilla players who released a photo of a barbecue in a garden and last weekend it was Real Madrid striker Luka Jovic who skipped protocol at a meal at his home accompanied by Getafe players Maksimovic and Atlético de Madrid Saponjic.
