FOOTBALL super-agent Mino Raiola will leave hospital ‘very soon’ according to a family friend.
Earlier this month the 54-year-old was forced to deny having emergency surgery after undergoing what he described as ‘medical checks that needed anaesthesia’.
Italian outlet Gazzetta dello Sport had claimed the super-agent, 54, was rushed to San Raffaele hospital in Milan for surgery.
And now his cousin Vincenzo has shared an update on Raiola’s health on social media.
Social media influencer Damiano ‘Er Faina’ posted a clip on Instagram, that Vincenzo shared to his Stories.
As reported by Football Italia, he said: “In a few days, very soon, Mino Riaola will leave the hospital.
“Let’s pray Jesus that the rehabilitation process that will make him return as he was before.”
‘Er Faina’ then hit out at ‘lies’ about Raiola’s health, and those who have ‘spoken ill of him’.
German newspaper Bild had claimed that Raiola was in intensive care at a Milan hospital.
He continued: “‘Everyone in life can do what they want but lying about a person’s health is wrong.
“He will finally be able to respond to all those who have spoken ill of him with this news.”
Raiola represents the likes of Paul Pogba, Erling Haaland and Zlatan Ibrahimovic and recently proposed SCRAPPING transfer fees.
He famously made £20m in agent fees as part of the deal taking Pogba back to Manchester United in 2016.
