PEDRO MENDES CONDITION UPDATE

Pedro Mendes

Pedro Mendes will be returning today from Manchester accompanied by the club medical personnel after spending the night at the Manchester Royal Infirmary for observation and scans. Mendes will continue to be under medical and neurological supervision during the forthcoming week.

Pedro was involved in a collision with Manchester City's Ben Thatcher during the 0-0 draw at the City of Manchester Stadium last night. The impact knocked Pedro unconscious and he received medical treatment both pitchside and in the stadium medical room before being taken to the Manchester Royal Infirmary for further assessments and care.

Portsmouth Football Club wish to thank all the medical staff and stewards at the City of Manchester Stadium for their efficiency last night as well as the Manchester Royal Infirmary staff who dealt with Pedro in expert fashion.

We would like to thank all the supporters for their kind messages of concern and best wishes and wish Pedro a speedy and safe recovery.
