RIO DE JANEIRO: Former Brazil international striker Luis Fabiano has been admitted to hospital with COVID-19, his management team said on Wednesday.
Fabiano, who tested positive for the virus last week, is under observation in a general ward of a Sao Paulo hospital after initially self-isolating at home.
"He has had symptoms related to the illness and [his] doctor ... advised him to go to hospital for closer monitoring," a press spokesperson said in a statement, adding that the 40-year-old's condition was stable.
Later, Fabiano moved to reassure fans that he would be fine. Agencies
