“I’m very well now, I feel that I have recovered”- Arteta

Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta was among the first football figures to get affected by the outbreak of coronavirus.

Arteta has now completed his 14-day self-isolation period and feels ready to get back in action.

“I’m very well now, I feel that I have recovered,” he told La Sexta.

“It took me three or four days to start feeling much better and with more energy, to leave the symptoms behind and now, the truth is that I feel very well.”

The Spaniard was believed to have contracted Covid-19 after coming in contact with Olympiacos owner Evangelos Marinakis. He also provided a timeline of events after he first started feeling the symptoms.

“Everything happened very fast,” Arteta added.

“I had the test done last Wednesday and I was diagnosed on Friday, when we had to communicate it to the Premier League that I had tested positive. Obviously, all those that had been in contact with me had to go into quarantine, and consequently, games had to be suspended.”
