These are critical times and it's very difficult.
He also played for Istanbul giants Fenerbahce and Besiktas in football-mad Turkey before retiring in 2012.Turkey has officially recorded 7,402 cases of the new coronavirus while 108 people have died, according to the health minister yesterday. — AFP
