Arsenal sends message as ex-player hospitalized with ‘acute condition relating to the brain’

According to standard.co, Arsenal has extended well wishes to former player Kristoffer Olsson, who has been hospitalized with a “acute disease related to the brain” at FC Midtjylland. The 28-year-old Swedish foreign “lost consciousness at his home” last week and was sent to Aarhus University Hospital in Denmark, where he is currently on a ventilator.

To quell public speculation over Olsson’s health, FC Midtjylland issued the following statement: “Kristoffer Olsson is suffering from an apparent acute brain disease, which is not the result of self-harm in any way, nor is the cause due to external factors.”

“A team of Denmark’s leading medical experts is currently working at high pressure to make a diagnosis and initiate the right treatment.”Since his entrance, Kristoffer has been surrounded by his personal family and members of FC Midtjylland’s staff, as well as medical professionals.
