Footballing legend Edwin Van der Sar is in intensive care after suffering a brain haemorrhage while on holiday in Croatia.
The former Manchester United and Fulham star goalie was flown to hospital by helicopter today and is said to be in a stable condition, according to a statement from Ajax.
'On Friday, Edwin van der Sar has had a bleeding around his brain. He's currently in hospital in the intensive care unit and is in a stable condition,' a spokesperson said.
The former manager of Ajax's shock illness comes 14 years after his wife was hospitalised with the same condition when she collapsed in their family home in the Netherlands.
