PSG's Rico in intensive care after riding accident
Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Sergio Rico is in intensive care following a horse riding accident, the club said on Sunday.
The Ligue 1 champions confirmed Spanish media reports that Rico, PSG’s second-choice goalkeeper, is in the ICU at Sevilla’s Virgen del Rocio hospital.
“Paris Saint-Germain learned of Sergio Rico’s accident on Sunday and are in constant contact with his family,” PSG said in a statement.
Spaniard Rico, 29, joined PSG in 2020 after a season-long loan at the club.
He previously enjoyed spells at Sevilla, Fulham and Mallorca. He has also been capped once for Spain in 2016.
“Lots of strength and speedy recovery, @sergiorico25” Sevilla said in a message posted to Twitter.
PSG clinched a record 11th French league title after drawing 1-1 at Strasbourg on Saturday.
