Ghana midfielder Kwadwo Asamoah is lamenting the rate at which the deadly coronavirus has swept Italy.
The Inter Milan midfielder, who is currently under self isolation following directives from the Italian Prime Minister, revealed the situation isn't looking good in the European country.
He however warned Ghanaians to take a cue from what is happening Italy and make sure they take safety measures seriously.
“The situation in Italy has now worsened and I will say that it is not good. I am fine but the conditions here are very bad. For now we cannot go nowhere," he told Peace FM.
“All training has been cancelled and everything has been closed here in Milan. It has not been easy. We didn’t take this seriously at first. People continued to carry out their daily activities and that is why the virus spread so quickly.”
“So far no Inter players have contracted the disease. It is worrying to know that some players have contracted the virus, especially players at Juventus because they are the last team we played against before the break. Today even when you have a normal cough you get scared and you think you have the virus.”
“I advise the Ghanaians to take this virus seriously. At this point they should refrain from social gatherings. It is not easy and they should follow the instructions provided by doctors and government officials.”
