Top French club Stade Francais are being forced to deal with a far-from-ideal situation as 25 members of the club have tested positive for Covid-19, sending their entire camp into isolation and their preparations into disarray.
With the new Top 14 season scheduled to get underway on 4 September, Stade Francais find themselves in a precarious position which they will be hoping to recover from in time.
According to the dailymail.co.uk, the tests were carried out on Monday with French sports outlet L'Equipe with the results being issued today (Tuesday).
The club was scheduled to play a friendly against rivals Brive soon - a fixture which has now been cancelled.
