Ajax confirm 20-year-old Abdelhak Nouri has suffered 'serious and permanent brain damage'



AJAX HAVE CONFIRMED that Abdelhak Nouri, the club’s 20-year-old midfielder, has suffered ‘serious and permanent brain damage’ after he collapsed during a pre-season friendly last Saturday.

The Netherlands underage international was airlifted to hospital in Innsbruck, Austria after suffering a cardiac arrhythmia during Ajax’s game against Werder Bremen.
Ajax said on Tuesday that Nouri would be gradually awoken from an induced coma by doctors, and the Dutch club this afternoon confirmed the awful news following more detailed tests.

“Ajax are deeply saddened by the news that Appie Nouri has been diagnosed with serious and permanent brain damage,” a brief statement on Twitter read.
“Our thoughts and prayers go out to him and his loved ones in this difficult time.” - Journal.ie
