Rustu: Coronavirus was the toughest game of my life, stay at home
The ex-Barcelona goalkeeper spoke about his experience with Covid-19
The former Barcelona goalkeeper Rustu Reçbar says his fight with coronavirus was the "most difficult game" of his life after recovering from the virus.
Reçbar was in a critical condition in hospital before making a full recovery and being able to return home after testing positive for Covid-19.
"I am slowly getting back to myself, my health is improving every day," he said. "My body is a little weak. I had to undergo some very intense treatment.
"I am on the road to recovery now, though, and I can only thank God to be able to improve every day."
He continued: "I will now have to spend another 15 days at home in quarantine. It was a difficult moment, it was one of the most difficult games of my life, but the worst has passed and I am finally back at home. Luckily I stopped smoking five years ago."
Reçbar also sent a message to anyone who still has doubts about the severity of coronavirus, which has been declared a pandemic after spreading across the globe.
"This virus is really serious," he said. "You can't joke about it or hide from it. It's a threat to all of humanity. We have to stay at home and avoid unnecessary contact with other people. Listen to those that have experienced it first hand."
