I struggled to breathe: Dybala reveals coronavirus nightmare
Juventus star Paulo Dybala revealed Friday how he "struggled to breathe" after contracting coronavirus which has killed over 9,000 persons in Italy.

The Argentine international announced last Saturday he was among three Juventus players to catch the virus along with Daniele Rugani and Blaise Matuidi, who both had no symptoms.

"Personally i think better now after some strong symptoms," the 26-year-old Dybala told JTV channel.

"A couple of days ago I was not well, I felt heavy and after five minutes of movement I had to avoid because I was struggling to breathe.

"Now I can move and walk to get started on trying to train, since when I tried during the past few days I began to shake too much.

"I gasped for air and consequently I couldn't do anything, after five minutes I was already very tired, I felt your body heavy and my muscles hurt.

"Now I'm fine. My fiancée Oriana (Sabatini) has also overcome the symptoms."

Dybala has scored 13 goals in every competitions this year, including in league leader's Juventus's last game against Inter Milan before Serie A and all sport in Italy was suspended.

"The target against Inter was the greatest emotion, (Aaron) Ramsey provided the perfect assist - it's a pity that there is no public," added Dybala.
