The raging coronavirus has caught up with the best Finnish footballer of all time, Jari Litmanen. The 49-year-old man, currently living in Estonia, had to fight for four weeks to defeat the insidious disease. "I had a fever, was plagued by headaches, muscle pain, shortness of breath, and everything else. The coronavirus did not retreat for four weeks, and it took a couple more weeks to recover. Thankfully, the pain and shortness of breath were never so strong that I had to go to the hospital. I could stay at home, but it was not easy to be here for a few weeks," said the Finn, who believes he contracted the virus from his previously ill wife Ly. "It is truly a serious illness, probably never in my life have I been in such poor physical condition," said J. Litmanen.
