“There have been 15 positive cases, three of which are from the Deportivo Alaves first team squad and seven members of the coaching team,” the statement said.
“None of the Kirolbet Baskonia (the club’s basketball side) squad have tested positive. There have also been five club employees who have been affected.
“The club took the decision to undertake the tests in accordance with our policy of responsibility towards people who form part of our family, and the results show that it was the best and quickest manner in which to find the cases and put the necessary preventative measures in place to reduce, in any way possible, any more spreading.
“Those who have given positive results do not have any symptoms and are well.”
