La Liga - De la Red to miss season

Eurosport - Wed, 01 Jul 13:23:00 2009

Real Madrid midfielder Ruben de la Red will miss the whole of the 2009-10 season as doctors have still not pinned down why he collapsed in a match in October.

Ruben de la Red - 0

"What I have doesn't have a name and as of today there is no concrete answer," De la Red, 24, told Marca, adding he still hoped to make a comeback at some point.

The former Spain international was running back towards the hal-way line when he suddenly fell face first and lay motionless.

He was taken off on a stretcher and regained consciousness in the dressing room but has not played since.

  2. Wow, that is really strange. I also hope he gets better­ soon and gets to play. I hate Real too and love Barca­ but it is always sad to hear such news, especially when­ the player is so young. It reminds of poor Antonio­ Puerta - that was so tragic. All the best Ruben!
