Messages from Rico's teammates and friends were all over social media as they expressed their happiness for his health.

The Spaniard spoke to the media after his release and thanked everybody for their love and support. (via GOAL):

“I wanted to say a few words to thank my family and my wife for their respect. I wanted to thank the football world that has sent me messages of support. Everyone who has stopped for a minute to give me support. I thank them. Also, of course, to the Hospital Virgen del Rocio, who are professionals of the highest order.

Alba Silva, Sergio's wife, took to Instagram to post a picture of the couple couple having a day out by the pool.

"The ♥️ HEALS EVERYTHING," she captioned the post.

Kylian Mbappe expresses happiness for PSG's Sergio Rico after discharge

Kylian Mbappe was one of the first players from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) to express their happiness for teammate Sergio Rico on his release from the hospital.

Sergio Rico travelled to Seville with his family after PSG won the Ligue 1 title last year. During his time here, he met with an accident involving a runaway horse. The goalkeeper got kicked in the skull and had to be airlifted to a hospital immediately.

According to The Athletic, Rico escaped death by half a centimetre. The doctors stated that if the injury had been half a centimetre deeper, he would have been dead.

Mbappe took to Instagram to share a picture of Rico exiting the hospital with his wife and called it the picture of the day.

"Pic of the day. You're not gonna see something better than this. So happy to see you like that my bro," he captioned the post.

Many personalities in the football world wished Sergio and his wife on his recovery, who was released from the hospital three months after being put in an induced coma.

Sergio Rico is still under contract with PSG but will not be back to playing for the next few months while he recovers to full fitness. With a year left on his contract, it is unknown if the Spaniard will continue with the French club.
