Real Madrid announced on Wednesday that Modric and Marcelo had tested positive. On Monday the club also reported cases in its basketball team.
Marcelo posted a video on social media on Thursday.
“Hello everyone, I want to thank all of you for the messages. I’m OK. My family’s OK,” said the defender in a message in Portuguese, Spanish and English.
Although Real are potentially without seven players for Sunday’s Liga match against Cadiz, only Modric and Asensio started in their last match, against Atletico Madrid. Rodrygo came off the bench, while Bale and Lunin were unused substitutes.
Under Liga protocols, a club must have at least 13 players, at least five of them first-teamers and one a goalkeeper, available to play a match.
Vaccinated players can return as soon as they test negative.
