Atletico Madrid said on Sunday that two inpiduals have tested positive for coronavirus before Thursday's Champions League quarter-final encounter against RB Leipzig in Lisbon.
The Spanish club added that the unnamed inpiduals are in the isolation at hoem.
The positive cases were discovered after first-team players and club staff travelling to Lisbon were tested in Madrid on Saturday.
"This motivates changes in the training schedules, in the structure and development of the trip and the accommodation in the Portuguese capital," Atletico said in a statement.
"The club will coordinate the new schedules with Uefa and as soon as there is a new plan it will be made public. It also calls for maximum respect for the identity of the two positive cases," the statement added.
Because of the coronavirus pandemic, the Champions League will conclude with a 'final eight' tournament in Lisbon, with single-leg games held behind closed doors.
