Rio Ferdinand in hospital and will MISS covering Arsenal’s clash with PSG

Rio Ferdinand is in hospital and will be absent from TNT Sports’ coverage of Arsenal‘s trip to PSG in the Champions League.

The Manchester United legend shared a selfie from his hospital bed with one thumb up.

Ferdinand offered no indication as to what his health situation was or how long he would be in hospital for.

He posted on X: ‘Gutted to be missing the Semi-Finals this week on TNT Sports!!

‘Wishing the team all the best — I’ll be watching every minute from the iPad!’

Ferdinand was present for TNT Sports’ coverage of Aston Villa‘s 1-0 win over Fulham in Birmingham on Saturday.

He was also in Bilbao as Manchester United beat Athletic Club 3-0 last Thursday.

‘Get well soon, Rio,’ his employers wrote, as hundreds more supportive comments flooded in.

Arsenal will hope for a better performance than last week, which saw them slump to a 1-0 home defeat by PSG.
