Former Manchester United midfielder Marouane Fellaini has confirmed that he has tested positive for coronavirus.

In a post on Twitter, the 32-year-old, who is now at Chinese club Shandong Luneng said he hopes "to return to the game as soon as possible".

Chinese media reports say Fellaini is in isolation at Jinan hospital, which specialises in infectious diseases.

The Belgium international moved to China in 2019 after 11 seasons in England with United and Everton.

Fellaini, who had recently returned to the country to resume training, is reportedly the only Chinese Super League player to have contracted the illness.

A statement from his club read: "The official test confirmed that the player Fellaini has tested positive for coronavirus during the quarantine observation period.

"During this period, the player's body temperature has been normal and there are no other discomforts. He has received further observation and treatment at a designated medical institution."

How to prevent covid19
1. Avoid unnecessary physical contacts with other people.
2. This seems cliche but wash your hands regularly with soap and water. Note that washing is actually more effective than hand sanitizers.
3. Avoid unnecessary trips to medical centers where sick people are being treated.

What to do if you notice symptoms of covid19
1. REMAIN TF CALM. Covid19 is NOT a death sentence.
2. Self isolate immediately for the sake of people around you.
3. Where possible use face masks and gloves. Note that face masks and gloves are not to prevent contracting the virus, they're actually for people who have symptoms to prevent dissemination.
4. Report yourself to the nearest medical center and tell them your symptoms and they'll take it from there.
