Pedri Gonzalez and Ferran Torres joined Barcelona's list of players with COVID-19, while German clubs' preparations for the Bundesliga's resumption after the winter break are being hampered by infections.

Defending champion Bayern Munich is among the worst affected. Monday's training session was put back until the late afternoon so players and coaching staff could be tested upon their return. The team's return was already delayed by a day after the Bavarian club reported five infections.
