Another fit and healthy sports star has been struck down with health problems mid-game.
This time, Manchester United soccer player Victor Lindelof was forced to abandon a game on Saturday after he suddenly began suffering from chest pains.
Lindelof said he was struggling to breathe and was clutching his chest in pain.
Lindelof left the pitch to receive medical help during United’s 1-0 win over Norwich on Saturday.
Lindelof joins dozens of other athletes worldwide who have suffered some form of “mysterious” chest pain or even cardiac arrest.
The BBC reported:
The Spain goalkeeper said the incident brought back memories of Denmark midfielder Christian Eriksen’s cardiac arrest on the pitch during Euro 2020 and also the collapse of Barcelona forward Sergio Aguero in October.
“As soon as it was like difficult breathing and feeling strange, the game doesn’t matter,” De Gea said.
Speaking to Sky Sports, he added: “First of all is life. Football doesn’t matter.
As Slay News has previously reported, dozens of healthy athletes have been collapsing recently with inexplicable and sudden heart conditions.
Stories recently emerged, including video, of professional soccer star Adama Traore collapsing on the field while grabbing at his chest.
However, the facts surrounding these disturbing incidents, which includes nearly six dozen fallen athletes in the last month alone, are thin.
What could possibly be behind this sudden spike in heart disease among young, healthy athletes?
Some researchers are claiming that “cold weather” may be a cause of blood clots and heart attacks among younger adults.
