ROME – For Iker Casillas, the Porto goalkeeper hit by a heart attack at the end of a workout, recovery has already begun. For the 37-year-old goalkeeper the diagnosis speaks of at least three months of total stop. And then? And then … we'll see.
For the doctor of Porto Iker he will recover fully , but for the former Spanish national doctor the extreme defender will have to say goodbye to professional football .
"Casillas will fully recover, but once this phase is over he will have to decide whether to continue or not," said Portuguese doctor Nelson Puga to "A Bola". Antonio Corbalan, a former doctor of the Iberian national team, has a different opinion. "It is impossible to return to playing with a stent: Iker – the doctor told Tve – can return to a normal life, but not to professional football".
Meanwhile, Casillas, who received comforting messages from all over the world of football, must remain in the intensive coronary unit of the CFU of Oporto at least until the end of this week.
