Receiving all the integral elements that his condition requires, the former footballer and current sports panelist, Freddy Eusebio Rincón Valencia, remains in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of the Imbanaco Clinic in Cali, Valle del Cauca.

Although the communications office of the Caleño medical center announced that the patient is still in a critical condition and his prognosis remained reserved around 9:35 a.m. this Tuesday, April 12, the hospital released the #4 statement on the state of health of the Tricolor idol at the 1990 World Cup in Italy.

In this new report, medical specialists reported that the former player “continues to receive the necessary measures in the Intensive Care Unit. With all the relevant specialties and sources of knowledge that allow us to make the best decisions.”

Laureano Quintero, medical director of the Imbanaco clinic, told on March 12 that Freddy's condition is maintained with advanced support measures. With critical condition, his prognosis has not changed and in view of the fact that his evolution has not been as expected, more resources have been implemented so that the former footballer can be in optimal condition.

Ospina indicated that, apart from Rincón, the investigation into the case managed to identify two other people who were traveling with the former player in the private vehicle: Maria Manuela Patiño, 20, and Diana Lorena Cortés, 43, who are out of danger.
