"I want to go back to my routine and feel like a footballer again"

The Spaniard was discharged from Seville's Virgen del Rocio hospital on August. The 30-year-old is recovering well and is slowly regaining his lifestyle.

Sergio Rico gave an interview for the Spanish outlet 'COPE' and spoke about his recovery process and his possible return to action with Paris Saint-Germain. "I'm looking forward to the doctor giving me a little more freedom because I feel good. I want to go back to my routine and feel like a footballer again," he said.

Moreover, he said he had lost 20 kilos, of which he has already regained 16 kilos after being in a coma: "I lost 20 kilos... I weighed about 92 and I stayed at 73. Now I weigh 88 kilos. I take it too calmly, it is not in my power.

"If it were in my power I would already be hitting the back of my head. I follow the orders of the doctors, who are in charge and those who have saved my life, without going overboard in the slightest," he added.
