Good news from the condition of the football player Sergio Rico was taken to the intensive care unit of the Virgen del Rocío hospital in Seville. Since Sunday, May 28, he has been kicked in the head by a fleeing ox after falling off his horse in El Rocío.

Although still serious after being sedated and intubated for 9 days due to the head injury he received in the fatal accident, the last hour invites us to reflect on optimism.

Doctors treating the Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper yesterday began withdrawing the sedative to see how his body reacted to the stimuli, as his wife, Alba Silva, confirmed on Tuesday: “We are taking small steps forward and we are happy. Doctors are seeing how it reacts and they need to be aware of it,” he explained, “and we have some prospects to see how it develops at the moment.

For this reason and despite Sergio is currently intubated because – and as a precaution – mechanical breathing will not retract, his wife assures him that he is getting “less and less each time” and that his recovery, albeit slowly, is on the right track.
