« 20 days of bleeding and vomiting »: Gonçalo Ramos’ shocking testimony

Gonçalo Ramos was struck by a mysterious virus last winter: he opens up about his rough patch.

Gonçalo Ramos sidelined for several matches. Rumors circulated about a punishment from Luis Enrique. But it was not the case. The Portuguese was simply ill. Very ill indeed. The player was severely affected by a virus at the end of 2023. PSG did not specify the nature of this virus.

The PSG player opens up to Record. « I had a tough December. It started with a virus, which then turned into a colon infection. I spent 20 days bleeding and vomiting, unable to eat, and with very high fevers. »

« I ended up going to the hospital four or five times and was put on intravenous drips. I lost eight kilos and I was in the midst of adapting to life in France, so this ordeal didn’t help, » he said.

« It was difficult to regain momentum »

« Then, I had to regain weight in the middle of the season, doing preseason in January, which is not easy. I was a bit lucky because it’s a quieter month in terms of competitions, but it was difficult to regain momentum after losing so much weight. »

« I started on December 10 and didn’t train until the 21st. I had a setback at Christmas, went to the hospital, and only came back on the 30th. It was upon my return on the 30th that I started training at 100%. »
