Former Liverpool star Lucas Leiva will undergo further tests on his condition months after being told to 'stay away' from football.
The ex-Reds midfielder, who now plays for Brazilian club Gremio, was forced to temporarily stop playing football in December due to a possible heart issue. Lucas was taken out of training after a potential cardiac issue was detected during routine screening.
The 36-year-old released a statement back in December that he had been referred to see a specialist and advised to "stay away" from high-performance physical activity for between two and three months. Now an update has emerged on the status of the former Liverpool star.
