Is to undergo a liver transplant as further treatment for the tumour he had removed last year.
Not nice to see anyone undergo such an operation and must be especially hard for an elite athlete.

Very sad, he was a decent player.
I'm sure it says he still hopes to make the Euro's in the summer. Best wishes to him
Oh dear! I really hope the big man is fine. A great professional.
I wish him all the best in the world, but surely thats not feasible?:confused:Quote:

It's not so much the transplant but the immuno-suppresant (anti rejection) drugs he'll be on for the rest of his life after the op, they can be utterly horrific. Good luck to him, if he keeps on playing to a high level then that'll be some achievment.
Good luck to the guy - a top player IMO
Well done also to Barcelona who knew this would need done even after the removal of the tumour and still signed him up on a new contract
