Sergio Rico’s state of health has been one of the main issues of concern in Spanish news in recent months. The Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper has been admitted to the Virgen del Rocío Hospital in Seville since May 28, after receiving a horse kick to the head in the Huelva town of El Rocío. The weeks and his state of health have been evolving, to the point that you can already see his physical state.
Alba Silva, the goalkeeper’s wife, has published a series of photos from her week on Instagram, including one in which she can be seen resting next to the footballer. In the image, Rico appears paler and thinner than before the accident, still showing signs of recovery in progress. Other photographs show various moments of the daily life of the young journalist, whether reading a book or taking care of her pet.
“I don’t have much to teach or tell you, or maybe I do, because I could write a book with all the emotions I’ve felt during these two months, but I prefer to stay with what is important, that we are fine and that I will not have a life to thank for so much love in each of your gestures and messages. Thank you and more thank you”, published Silva on Instagram. Other images also showed different messages of encouragement that the communicator had received.
Despite the changes in the condition of the Parisian player, Sergio Rico’s final discharge continues to be delayed due to various setbacks. When everyone assumed that he would leave the hospital two weekends ago, the doctors decided to postpone his departure in order to carry out more tests on him. Days later, it was known that Rico was going to be operated on for an aneurysm that had been detected after the fact.
“The doctors are the ones who decide and little by little he is moving forward,” Silva assured the Europa Press microphones. A small obstacle that did not prevent the rest of the football planet from continuing to send their support to the goalkeeper. Neymar, Rico’s teammate at PSG, sent a fun message with a joint photograph of the rest of the squad: “We miss you, friend. Strength and come back soon because I want to score goals for you”.
Meanwhile, the investigation and resolution of the incident left doubts and surprises among locals and strangers. The police report revealed that there was no direct witness to the kick that left Rico on the ground. Something that corroborates the statements of people close to the area, which revealed that a truck scared the horse of a nearby cart. With the commotion, the colt and the rest of the animals caught up with the Sevillian soccer player, where the steed that was next to him got nervous and hit him.
