Lior Berkovich, son of Israeli football legend Eyal Berkovich, has updated followers on his health after being hospitalized with a severe case of shingles. He shared a video from his hospital bed, visibly unwell, describing the previous night as one of the hardest of his life. "I didn't sleep, one of the hardest nights of my life," he stated, detailing intense pain and immobility. "My whole back is finished, my right leg, the football leg, is crushed. I'm limping, it's hard for me to walk."
