The Italian Serie A football league had gone to court because health authorities had placed the clubs in isolation altogether.

After winning their legal battle to lift COVID-19 quarantine imposed on players from top-flight clubs Torino, Salernitana, and Udinese, the Italian Serie A football league expressed "great satisfaction" on Saturday.

Here’s what happened

Following COVID-19 breakouts in Italy, local health authorities barred squad members from competing, prompting Lega Serie A to submit an appeal.

Quarantine has been confirmed for Bologna, who are due to face Cagliari on Sunday at home, due to the fact that just a few players have received their third vaccine shot.

In a statement, the Italian league expressed their hope to "quickly achieve a standardization of the interventions of local health authorities in compliance with the law and sports protocols.”

On the orders of local health officials, midweek games involving Bologna, Torino, Salernitana, and Udinese were not played.

Meanwhile, under pressure from the Italian government and the prospect of matches being played behind closed doors, the Italian league has agreed that games in Italy over the weekends of January 15 and 23 will be limited to 5,000 spectators.

The SuperCup matches between Inter Milan and Juventus in the San Siro on Wednesday will be played at half-capacity, as well as Sunday's matches between Roma and Juventus and Inter Milan against Lazio.

It is worth mentioning that COVID has infected around 80 Serie A players, and more than 1.8 million Italians have tested positive for the virus, which has killed over 138,000 people in the country since early 2020.
