Bolton Wanderers midfielder Fabrice Muamba is critically ill after collapsing during an FA Cup quarter-final tie against Tottenham.
The 23-year-old is being treated in the intensive care unit of the heart attack centre at the London Chest Hospital.
Medics spent six minutes trying to resuscitate him on the field after he fell to the ground with no other players around him.
Bolton Wanderers can confirm that Fabrice Muamba has been admitted to The Heart Attack Centre at The London Chest Hospital where he is in a critically ill condition in intensive care," said a joint statement from Bolton and the hospital released at 2130 GMT on Saturday.
"No further information will be issued at this stage. The club and hospital request that the media and public respect the family's privacy at this time."
