Luton’s Lockyer out of hospital

Luton Town captain Tom Lockyer has been discharged from hospital after he suffered a cardiac arrest on the pitch during the Premier League game against Bournemouth last weekend, the club said yesterday. 

The 29-year-old defender left hospital on Wednesday after he had an Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) device fitted to prevent a repeat of the incident.

The match was abandoned after the incident and will be replayed again in full.

“We are thankful to report that our captain Tom Lockyer has now begun a period of rehabilitation from the comfort of his own home,” Luton said in a statement.

“This encouraging news follows a successful procedure that took place on Tuesday whereby Tom had an ICD (Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator) device fitted to prevent a repeat of Saturday’s incident.” — Reuters.
