BARCELONA defender Eric Abidal is recovering well after a liver transplant, the club said yesterday, although at the wishes of his family there will be no official statement on the success of the procedure for now.
The France international underwent a lengthy operation on Tuesday which finished at about midnight, just after Barcelona's 4-0 La Liga victory at home to Getafe during which the whole stadium chanted Abidal's name. "Today could be a great one all round, because we know that Abidal and his cousin (Gerard, the donor) are recovering well after the operation," Barcelona President Sandro Rosell said yesterday. "I can't say anything more than this because the family have specifically asked us not to say any more."
