Nico Kritsiotis – in hospital
Kritsiotis, who underwent a kidney transplant in 2011, has suffered a serious infection in the arm that he used for his dialysis prior to undergoing his transplant.
On Tuesday morning he undergoes a vascular procedure to remove all the ports used during his renal failure and dialysis.
The operation, which is scheduled to last some hours, is likely to see him out of action for weeks.
Speaking to the Sporting Post on Monday evening, Nico thanked all of those who have sent him messages of well wishes as well as numerous gifts to his hospital bedside.
“Excuse the pun, but I hope to be back in circulation in a few weeks,” he quipped when requesting that we thank all those that had wished him well.

We wish Nico a speedy recovery.
