He is back ! Six months to the day after his serious horse riding accident during the Rocio pilgrimage in the south of Spain on May 28, Sergio Rico reappeared at the Parc des Princes this Tuesday evening, while Paris Saint-Germain faced Newcastle in the Champions League.
The man who was Keylor Navas’s understudy for several seasons, released from hospital at the end of August, was already expected to be present at the Parc des Princes a month ago, at the end of October, for the AC Milan reception. He finally waited a bit, and the Parisians’ next match in the Champions League.
Present on the pitch and visibly in good shape, he greeted the public at the Parc des Princes, who gave him a standing ovation and sang his name in return. The Spaniard (30 years old) has not played again since May 2022, when he was on loan at RCD Mallorca, and has not put on the PSG jersey since November 2021. Last season, he appeared regularly in the group but has not played a single match.
In an interview with PSG TV, he explained that he wanted to play again as quickly as possible: “I hope I have good news. I want to return as quickly as possible with the team to Paris. My ultimate goal is to come back this year to be with the team before the end of the season.”
