    Eric Abidal

    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.

    He'll do well to play again IMO. Good luck to him.

    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
    This is how it feels
