Cameroon's Choupo-Moting sidelined with Covid-19

Bayern Munich and Cameroon footballer Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting has tested positive for coronavirus.

The 32-year-old forward missed the German club's Champions League win over Dynamo Kyiv on Tuesday and is self-isolating at home.

Choupo-Moting has scored eight goals in 12 appearances for his club this season, and last week he helped Cameroon qualify for Africa's 2022 World Cup play-offs.

A statement on the Bayern website said the player was "doing well under the circumstances".
