Football: Spain's Ballon D'Or Winner Aitana Bonmati Diagnosed With Meningitis
Spanish Football Federation: Spain's preparations for the forthcoming Women's European Championships in Switzerland have suffered a major setback with the news that midfielder Aitana Bonmati has been taken to hospital suffering from viral meningitis.
The two-time Ballon d'Or winner was missing from the side that defeated Japan in its last preparation game on Friday night, and in her post-game press conference, coach Montse Tome confirmed Aitana's illness.
"She was taken for tests this [Friday] morning and in the final test she was confirmed to have viral meningitis," explained Tome, who added that "the word [meningitis] is scary, but in principle, it is under control."
