Fiorentina's Patrick Cutrone, Germán Pezzella and Dusan Vlahovic have all been cleared of the Covid-19 virus, the Italian club announced on Sunday. Vlahovic was the Viola's first confirmed positive case of coronavirus, with the striker revealing in an Instagram post that his fever at one stage reached 39 degrees.

"Fiorentina is delighted to announce that tests have revealed that Patrick Cutrone, Germán Pezzella and Dusan Vlahovic are no longer positive for COVID-19," the club announced in a statement. "We would like to take this opportunity to thank the doctors, nurses and hospitals that are continuing to care for all those who require medical attention at this difficult time for Italy and indeed the whole world."

Italy has been hit particularly hard during the global health pandemic - as of today, 15,887 lives have been lost in the country. In response to the outbreak, Fiorentina set up a 'Forza e Cuore' fundraiser that reached the initial target of €500,000 inside three days, with the money used to help buy key materials and equipment.

"Fiorentina is working with the Careggi and Santa Maria Nuova ONLUS foundations through its Forza e Cuore campaign, which has so far raised in excess of €760,000," the Viola announced.  "The money has been used to purchase key materials and equipment for use in the fight against the pandemic."
