Aston Villa midfielder Anwar El Ghazi: I have no life without football

Anwar El Ghazi says Aston Villa could be back in training on Wednesday.

The midfielder, during this coronavirus suspension, confesses he's desperately missed football.

"Training is suspended until next Wednesday, when we start training in small groups. But right now I'm still at home," El Ghazi told SportTeKort.

"It's a really strange feeling. The weirdest feeling I have right now is that I've found that I really don't have a life without football.

"Usually you get up and go to training and you are already busy preparing for the next match. Now I get up and jog a little, do some exercises in the garden, but I don't feel like I'm getting anything out of the day.

"It indicates that football is really my life."
