Sergio Rico’s wife confirms PSG keeper is out of coma three weeks after suffering horror injuries falling from horse
SERGIO RICO has come out of his coma after three weeks, his wife has confirmed.
Alba Silva confirmed the news after the Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper suffered horror injuries when he fell off a horse.
Rico was submitted into intensive care following the head injuries he received at the end of May in a horse-riding accident in Andalusia, Spain.
The 29-year-old was taken off of sedation a fortnight ago, only to be put back into a coma a few hours later.
But now, speaking to Spanish outlet Telecinco, Alba has provided good news on his condition.
Alba, who begged Rico not to “leave her alone” in an emotional message, said: “We can finally see the end of the tunnel. We’re going there step by step.
“I knew from the beginning that he would get through it because he’s a champion.”
