PSG goalkeeper Rico leaves hospital after coma

The 29-year-old Spaniard has been at Seville's Virgen del Rocio hospital since 28th May after an accident involving a horse at a local festival.
"Really, the brain is intelligent and erases these types of events - and the truth is that... it has been a dream, I woke up here in the hospital and, thank God, today I feel very excited, very happy. I hope to be available soon and recover day by day to return to football," Rico said.
PSG coach Luis Enrique gave Rico his best wishes. "I would like to send a message to Sergio Rico, who is leaving the hospital today and from here, from the club, we hope he continues his recovery, takes steps forward - all the club's support is for him and his family," Rico's compatriot said.
After several days in a coma, the goalkeeper was discharged from the hospital's intensive care unit on 5th July. Five days later, the player posted a message on social networks to reassure people of his state of health.
"I want to thank each and every person who has shown me and sent me their affection in these difficult days. I am still working on my recovery which each day is getting better. I feel very fortunate, once more, thank you to everyone and I hope to be able to see you soon," wrote Rico on Instagram.
The goalkeeper won the Europa League twice with his hometown club Sevilla and joined Paris Saint-Germain permanently in 2020 after a loan spell there.
