UEFA President Aleksander Ceferin will undergo testing for the coronavirus that will allow him to present the Champions League trophy to the winners, Report says, citing the official website of the organization.
Ceferin and general secretary Theodore Theodoridis will be tested two days before the finals of Europe's three club competitions this month so they can hand over the medals and trophies, UEFA said Monday.
During the pandemic, some competitions have seen players have to collect their medals, including at the FA Cup final in England.
