Bundesliga star Boris Vukcevic remains in a coma with severe head injuries but his condition has improved enough for him to be moved to a rehabilitation clinic, his club Hoffenheim have said. He has been in a coma since his car hit an oncoming truck on Sept 28 at Bammental, near Heidelberg, but he is showing steady signs of improvement and was moved from Heidelberg University Hospital. The Germany midfielder has already had two operations. “We remain very confident that Boris will make a recovery, but the situation is still very tense, so we want to deal with this respectfully and sensitively,” said Andreas Mueller. Vukcevic is a diabetic and he was hypoglycemic, suffering from low blood sugar level, at the time of the accident, a medical report has revealed. Local police are investigating the accident, which they say occurred when Vukcevic’s car crossed into the lane of oncoming traffic and was hit by a truck travelling in the opposite direction.
