Saido Balde, one of Germany's most exciting teenage stars, was rushed to hospital after collapsing during a youth game on Tuesday.
The 14-year-old was about to come on in the 60th minute of a match for Hamburg's Perspective team (comprised of their most talented players from their Under-21, Under-19 and Under-17 sides) against Oberliga side SV Eichede when he collapsed.
Balde is suspected of having suffered an epileptic seizure and collapsed to the ground trembling where he received urgent medical attention. The teenager was then taken directly to the nearby University Hospital Eppendorf.
