(Reuters) - Atletico Madrid's on-loan French forward Moussa Dembele has tested positive for COVID-19, making him the Spanish side's fourth player affected by the novel coronavirus in the last week, the La Liga leaders said on Thursday.

Dembele, who completed a loan switch to Atletico from French Ligue 1 side Olympique Lyonnais last month, joins fellow forward Joao Felix, defender Mario Hermoso and winger Yannick Carrasco who have all tested positive for the virus.
