“I have such beautiful and special feelings and I feel every prayer in my heart. This is a test and we’ll overcome it with your prayers and good wishes. I am fine and will be much better, God willing,” Terim, 66, said on Twitter and thanked fans for their support.
Terim announced late Monday that he tested positive for the virus.
In addition to coaching clubs in Italy and Turkey, Terim also managed the Turkish National Football Team, with his latest stint wrapping up in 2017.
