Two players and a support staff member of South Africa's men's Olympic football team have tested positive for coronavirus in Tokyo, the team said on Sunday.
The three have already been put in isolation.
"The rest of the team has already tested negative twice and is following closely all the recommendations of the local health authorities," the team said in a statement.
All members of the South African delegation have been tested daily since they arrived at the Olympic village in the Japanese capital ahead of next month's Olympics.
Earlier Sunday, Tokyo Olympics Organizers said two competitors had contracted COVID-19 in the Athlete's village after a team colleague was infected.
However, the organizers did not identify the team affected.
