Tests positive for COVID-19 Llorente has tested positive for COVID-19 and will miss at least one match in the upcoming Euros.

Impact Llorente became the Spaniards' second player (after Sergio Busquets) to test positive for COVID-19 following their friendly match against Portugal on Saturday. Spain could start Cesar Azpilicueta or Eric Garcia during his absence. However, neither of them are stable options considering the team's recent coronavirus outbreak.

Training with Spain Llorente (muscular) was pictured training with the national team without any limitations.

Impact Llorente didn't play in the Leeds finale because of a muscular issue, but it looks like he's over it and ready to compete in the Euros. He battled constant muscle injuries this season, so he probably won't be pushed too hard by Spain, but he started every match but the finale for Leeds since late February, so he should at least be at match fitness for the tournament.

Looking forward to Euros Llorente finished the Premier League season with a muscular injury but still made Spain's roster for the Euros.

Impact Llorente made just 15 appearances (14 starts) due to a nagging groin injury during the first half of the season, but still found a spot with his national team after a decent run of form in 2021. It's unlikely that he'll make many starts for his country this summer due to better options ahead of him, but his production for Leeds should remain viable for fantasy with 2.54 tackles made per 90 this season.

Impact Llorente has dealt with an ongoing muscle injury this season, so while it was smart for him not to push it, it's still worrisome going into summer. He managed 14 starts this season, but most of them came in the final two months, as injuries held him out until February for the most part.
