Bordeaux Striker Alberth Elis Plunged Into Coma After Head Trauma: An Update

Concern remains high in Bordeaux for striker Alberth Elis (28 years old). Victim of serious head trauma last Saturday against Guingamp, the Honduran has since been plunged into an artificial coma, as indicated by the scapular club last Sunday. “It is still impossible to comment on Alberth’s vital and functional prognosis. The Club therefore expects not to be able to communicate new decisive information for a few days and will not make any further comments on Alberth’s state of health.

However, at a time when the Navy and White are calling for restraint, the Honduran media have clearly not heard the message. Yesterday, The Press assured that Elis was gradually coming out of the coma following the doctors’ decision to lower the dose of sedatives. And that’s not all since the local media also assured that the player’s parents could speak to their son within 48 hours. Information synonymous with good news. But in France, they do not pass. Especially with the boss of FCGB, Gérard Lopez.

Gérard Lopez’s rant

“Publishing detailed information about Alberth’s condition is disrespectful and undermines his dignity. Sunday’s press release was perhaps not clear enough so I will say it again: we call for respect for Alberth’s medical confidentiality and privacy. Only his family, with the advice of doctors, can decide to communicate about the evolution of his state of health. We will abide by their decisions and hope EVERYONE does the same. Thank you again for your support which means a lot. We are all with you in this fight Alberth”he posted on X.

And if the businessman let out a rant, it’s because in France, the tone of the news concerning Elis is much more measured. This is the case of South West, which this morning evokes a player still in a coma, without announcing any improvement. The daily explains above all that Bordeaux is trying to manage this complicated period as best as possible by setting up a psychological unit for its employees and that the club should not request the postponement of its next Ligue 2 match against Rodez.
