Brazil post update on Telles coronavirus test

Telles came on as a substitute for Brazil in their victory over Venezuela on Friday night, introduced for Atletico Madrid’s Renan Lodi in the final minutes of the encounter. 

Alex helped close out the game for Tite’s side and, as things stand, Brazil sit top of the CONMEBOL World Cup qualifying table, and are the only team with a 100 per cent record after three fixtures.

Brazil’s match against Uruguay at Estadio Centenario could see Telles come up against his new United team-mate Edinson Cavani, who is back in his country’s squad after a one-year absence.
