The 61-year old ex-national captain, who is staying isolated alongside family members at his residence in Wari, old Dhaka, did his Covid-19 test at Asgar Ali Hospital in the capital six days ago. Concerns were raised after his positive test came out as he underwent treatment for brain haemorrhage in Singapore two years ago, but the national award winning former footballer seems strong enough to beat the virus. "Got the result [Wednesday] night. I'm alright, no symptoms of corona except a little bit of a sore throat," said the three-time BFF vice-president to Dhaka Tribune over phone.
