Edwin van der Sar condition remains "concerning" as tributes pour in for Man Utd icon

Messages of support have flooded in for Edwin van der Sar after Ajax issued an update on the legendary goalkeeper.

The 53-year-old was on holiday in Croatia when he suffered a brain haemorrhage and collapsed. He was taken to hospital by helicopter on Friday and is staying in the intensive care unit. Former club Ajax later confirmed that their ex-player and chief executive was suffering from bleeding around his brain but in a stable condition.

The club themselves have also released an update on behalf of the family: "Edwin van der Sar will remain in intensive care for the time being," he said. "His condition is stable but still concerning. Ajax shares this information on behalf of Annemarie van der Sar, Edwin's wife."
