Bruno Rodriguez, who also took a brief spell at Bradford, was left in chronic pain after his 16-year playing career.

What does the organization’s statement say?

PSG sent a message of support to the Frenchman after seeing the former striker have his leg amputated due to the constant suffering he has endured since his retirement.

The organization said in a statement that the UNFP is passing on strength and courage to Rodriguez, who, as a result of his football career, had to resort to leg amputation due to constant suffering.

Paris Saint-Germain also sent their best wishes to the player through their social media channels, inviting him to return to the Parc des Princes as soon as he can. The club wrote on social media that PSG is sending a message of support to their former striker Rodriguez, his family and loved ones in this ordeal. The club brings them all its strength and hopes to welcome them to the Parc des Princes as soon as possible.
