Zdenek Zeman Update: Iconic Coach Feels Better, Continues Rehabilitation
After a challenging few months, Zdenek Zeman, the legendary coach who led both Lazio and Roma, has announced that he is feeling better following his hospitalization due to cerebral ischemia earlier this year.
In a heartfelt post on Instagram, Zeman's son, Karel, shared the good news, expressing his father's optimism and determination to overcome his health challenges. The post included a touching photo of father and son by the sea, a testament to their strong bond and Zdenek's improved spirits.
