Caleb Ekuban's coronavirus infection was deadly- Trabzonspor President

President of Turkish Super Lig side Trabzonspor, Ahmet Agaoglu has revealed that Black Stars striker Caleb Ansah Ekuban suffered the severest Coronavirus infection at the club after arriving from the international break last November.

The Ghana international had to be rushed to the hospital after it was suspected that he had contracted the virus, but the initial test revealed a negative test.

However, the striker later showed severe symptoms of the virus before it was confirmed he tested positive.
