A little less than twenty-four hours after the accident suffered by Alberth Elis during the match between Bordeaux and Guingamp (1-0), Saturday, in Ligue 2, the Gironde club published a statement this Sunday. “Taken care of by the medical team, he (Alberth Elis) was quickly transferred to the CHU Pellegrin de Bordeaux where a surgical intervention was carried out during the night,” explains Bordeaux, who recalls that his player was placed in “a protective artificial coma.
“We will follow the evolution of his state of health in the hospital in the coming days,” we can also read in this press release. At this moment, it is still impossible to comment on Alberth’s vital and functional prognosis. The club therefore expects not to be able to communicate new decisive information for a few days and will not make any further comments on Alberth’s state of health. »
“Your words are a great strength in the fight that Alberth is waging”
Gérard Lopez, president of the Girondins
While a psychological unit will be set up to support club employees, president Gérard Lopez also reacted in the same press release: “We warmly thank all those who have shown their support for Alberth and his loved ones, especially clubs all over France. Your words warm our hearts and are a great strength in the fight that Alberth is waging,” said the Aquitaine leader.
