Wolverhampton Wanderers striker Patrick Cutrone has taken to social media after testing positive for coronavirus.

The Italian striker joined Fiorentina on an 18-month loan deal in January, that will become permanent in the summer of 2021.

On Saturday, the Italian club confirmed the positive tests of Cutrone, German Pezzella and their physio Stefano Danielli with a statement which read: “They were showing some symptoms. All 3 resulted positive and are in good health at their homes in Florence.”

Wolves responded on social media sending their well wishes to the 22-year-old: “Stay strong Patrick, the pack are thinking of you!”

And Cutrone also took to Instagram to express his gratitude with a message in both Italian and English.

“Thanks to all of you for the support and your messages of affection. I’m fine, and at this moment I stay at home following the protocol I received.

“I recommend you to strictly observe the indications provided every day by the Institutions. #StrongerTogheter #StayatHome

Thank you, Patrick.”

Italy is one of the worst hit countries for coronavirus, with more than 12,000 cases confirmed, with 827 deaths as of Friday.

Serie A was one of the first leagues to suspend fixtures, with many across the world, including the Premier League and EFL now following suit.
