According to a report by Telecinco, Sergio Rico, who was seriously injured in a riding accident at the end of May, woke up from a coma.
The wife of the 29-year-old Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper confirmed to the Spanish broadcaster on Monday: “Yes, little by little he is making progress.”
He is a champion, stressed Alba Rico in front of the Virgen del Rocío hospital in Seville.
Rico had a serious riding accident on May 28th. According to the family, he fell because the horse bolted. Rico was hit in the head by the animal in the accident on the ground and was seriously injured, it was said at the time.
After he had been conscious for a few days, doctors had to sedate the former Spain international goalkeeper, who has also played in goal for Sevilla FC, Fulham FC and RCD Mallorca.
“The truth is we’re seeing a little more light,” his wife said.
