Soccer community was seriously frightened on Wednesday when Iker Casillas faced the biggest test of his life. On Wednesday, it was suddenly announced that the 37-year-old goalkeeper suffered a heart attack during a training session with the "Porto" team. The Spaniard was immediately taken to the hospital, where he received all the necessary help. When taken to the hospital, I. Casillas underwent a minor heart operation. His condition is currently stable and there is no longer a threat to his life. However, the biggest question now is whether the Spanish football legend will ever be able to return to the field. Despite the fact that the goalkeeper is already in his forties, he recently signed a new two-year contract with the "Porto" club. Earlier, I. Casillas had planned to end his career this year, but no one could have suspected that he would have to say goodbye to football in this way. These forecasts were confirmed by I. Casillas and "Porto" doctor Nelson Puga. According to him, after the heart attack, the Spaniard will be able to continue his life as usual, but there is no certainty about his further professional career. "Everything depends on what kind of treatment he will need," said N. Puga. "His condition will need to be evaluated both during rest and during active engagement." "After calming down and thinking everything over, it will be decided many times over whether he can continue his career and whether he still wants to. Iker now feels good, his condition is stable. He has not lost his sense of humor and feels calm surrounded by his family members. Now he faces rehabilitation, which will require special medical care," said the "Porto" doctor. I. Casillas, considered one of the best goalkeepers of all time, has played a total of 1052 matches throughout his professional career, both for clubs and the national team. Throughout his career, I. Casillas has won absolutely everything - the Champions League, "La Liga," the World and European Championships, and many other trophies.
