Former Liverpool defender Rigobert Song has been hospitalised in his home country of Cameroon after suffering a stroke on Sunday, which has left him in critical condition and "fighting for his life."
That's according to Joe Rimmer of the Liverpool Echo, who reported the 40-year-old had a brain aneurysm.
L'Equipe (h/t Ian Holyman of ESPN FC) added he "fell ill at his home in the Cameroonian capital Yaounde" and was subsequently taken to hospital.
Song played 35 times for the Reds and made 137 caps for his country during his playing career.
