Llorente tested positive for Covid-19 on Tuesday meaning the defender had to leave the Spanish camp's training base but the 27-year-old has since returned four negative tests.

The Spanish football federation confirmed Llorente's fourth negative test on Friday evening and announced that the Whites defender had returned to the team's Las Rozas base ahead of Monday's Group E opener against Sweden.
