Last May, Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Sergio Rico suffered a severe head injury during an accidental horse-riding incident at his home in Huelva. The 30-year-old underwent brain surgery on several occasions and spent more than a month in intensive care, before being released from hospital 82 days later.
Since then, Rico has been on the road to recovery, which is now almost at its end. According to The Athletic (via AS Diary), the Spanish cap has passed the medical tests arranged by PSG, which means that he is very close to returning to Luis Enrique's team. These examinations checked his cardiovascular system, neurological capacity and cervical vertebrae, and everything seemed fine.
Also, Rico doesn't need a helmet to play, which shows how much he's recovered. The elder Seville and the Mallorca goalkeeper is expected to be available for Luis Enrique for the first time at the end of the month, and it will be a great moment if he is able to take to the field for the French champions before the end of the season
