The 37-year-old Spanish specialist spoke about his health condition. “I am now feeling well. After three or four days, I felt better. Now my symptoms have disappeared.
Everything happened very quickly. I felt terrible on Tuesday morning and went to the doctor. But he did not meet me on the spot.
Later, after training, I was in the car when management contacted me and informed me that the Olympiacos President’s test was positive. Accordingly, everyone who had contact with him was in danger. I was among them.
I told them about my situation and also informed that many of our players had contact with the representatives of Olympiacos.
The next day we had to play against Manchester City. It was clear that in silence, we would put people’s health at risk. That we could not do.
I took the test on Wednesday. On Friday, I was diagnosed. Everyone who came in contact with me had to go to quarantine. The matches were delayed.” – said the 37-year-old Spanish specialist.
