The midfielder Oscar, from São Paulo, remains hospitalized at the Albert Einstein Israelite Hospital in São Paulo's capital after presenting a complication with cardiological alterations. This Wednesday, the player will undergo a new series of tests and there is still no discharge forecast.

Oscar's condition remains stable, as reported by the club in a statement released on Tuesday. According to Gazeta Esportiva, there is still no discharge forecast due to the caution adopted by the medical team, who want to ensure the player is 100% ready to be released.

Earlier, São Paulo's number 8 posted a brief message on social media. The player thanked the support and expressed hope for better days. Oscar's former club, Chelsea also showed solidarity with the midfielder's situation.

What happened to Oscar?

São Paulo decided to bring forward the pre-season tests. Last Tuesday, the first day of examinations, Oscar fainted when he was already at the end of the medical evaluation. The player felt unwell on the bike and was promptly attended to by the team coordinating the exams.

The athlete was taken to Albert Einstein Hospital, where a complication with cardiological alterations was detected. He underwent a catheterization on Tuesday and also had an MRI. The results of the tests are expected to be released this Wednesday.

The report found that Oscar and his surroundings are quite scared by the situation. The player is considering retirement to avoid any risk of a bigger problem, like what happened with Juan Izquiero, a Nacional player who felt unwell on the Morumbi field and died five days later, a victim of cardiac arrest.

There was an expectation that, with the break for the FIFA date in November, Oscar would be available again to coach Hernán Crespo for the match against Corinthians on the 20th at Neo Química Arena, however, there is no possibility of the player playing in the short term.
