​Aston Villa winger El Ghazi struggling without football

Aston Villa winger Anwar El Ghazi admits that he is suffering without football.

El Ghazi is among many Premier League players who is in self isolation due to the COVID-19 outbreak.

There is no clear date for resumption of Premier League football, which means most players are in limbo.

He told reporters: "Training is suspended and right now I'm still at home. It's a really strange feeling.

"The weirdest feeling I have 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 fight.

"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."
