Veteran Spanish midfielder Cesc Fabregas has announced that his 95-year-old grandmother has defeated the emerging Corona virus. The French player of Monaco had revealed earlier this month that his grandmother had contracted the virus with 70 percent of those present with her, in a nursing home in the town of "Arenys de Mar" in Barcelona.

But the former Arsenal and Chelsea player, Barcelona, ​​wrote on his account on Twitter: "She crossed the Corona virus at the age of ninety-five. The examination was negative yesterday! "

The 32-year-old continued, "My great grandmother is a super hero, but this would not have been possible without the help of the nurses and doctors who give their lives in every moment, so that we can all live better in these difficult moments."

Fabregas, twice world and European champion with Spain, stayed with his family in the Principality of Monaco during a period of healthy closure. Fabregas decided to give up 30 percent of his salary until further notice, due to the financial crisis caused by the emerging Corona virus, to postpone his payment for four months, and to assist club employees in receiving their salaries.
