A few days ago, one of the footballers tested positive for the presence of coronavirus in the body. The club was banned from traveling with regular airlines. The team was supposed to fly a private plane to the match, but after doing more tests, it turned out that there were more infections. As a result, the club was banned from leaving the local sanitary department.
Salernitan punished with a forfeit and a point deduction?
Due to the lack of an official league announcement, the players were ready and willing to play the match on Tuesday evening. The club published the basic line-up on social media.
Then the Udinese players, together with the referee, waited 45 minutes from the time of the scheduled match, in accordance with the rules of the tournament. The guests did not arrive and, according to “calciomercato” information, they will probably forfeit the match and therefore receive a negative point.

Salernitana has had a terrible streak recently and takes the last place in the table. She lost four games in a row in the Italian league in which she did not score and lost as many as thirteen.
This is not the end of Salernitana’s problems. The club’s owner is Claudio Lotito, who has a majority stake, and it is prohibited. Therefore, if the club does not find a new owner by the end of the year and does not pay its debts, it will be excluded from Serie A.
The player of Salernitana is the one who joined before the start of the season on a loan from Genoa with the obligation to buy back after meeting certain conditions. According to the Italian media, there was a record of playing at least one game in Serie A under the title of the obligation.
