Former Colombia goalkeeper Faryd Mondragon has been hospitalised after an alleged suicide attempt.
The Guardian cited El Colombiano, which suggested Mondragon, 44, had taken a "large dose of anti-depressants" and was taken to the Valle del Lili clinic in his hometown of Cali, Colombia, on Tuesday suffering from a "metabolic imbalance.” The clinic confirmed he remains under medical observation, per ITV.
According to the Guardian, Mondragon posted a troubling message on his official Instagram prior to the incident, which has since been deleted. It read: “There is only me who can judge my life, and I’m tired of being judged by others without the possibility of defending myself.
