Fabrice Muamba remains in a critical condition in intensive care in the Heart Attack Centre at The London Chest Hospital.Fabrice was admitted to the hospital yesterday evening after collapsing at White Hart Lane, where he sustained a cardiac arrest during the FA Cup quarter-final against Tottenham Hotspur.
Fabrice received prolonged resuscitation at the ground and on route to The London Chest Hospital, where his heart eventually started working.
As is normal medical practice, Fabrice remains anaesthetised in intensive care and will be for at least 24 hours.
His condition continues to be closely monitored by the cardiac specialists at the hospital.
Bolton Wanderers Manager Owen Coyle said: "Fabrice's family have asked me to pass on their thanks for the many, many kind messages of support from not only Bolton fans but also fans from clubs across the country and abroad.
"All our thoughts and prayers are for Fabrice and his family. The family would also like to thank the media for respecting their privacy at this time."
No further updates are planned at this time.
The Premier League has confirmed that Bolton's scheduled match at Aston Villa on Tuesday has been postponed.
The move followed a request from the Lancashire club in the wake of Fabrice Muamba's admission to hospital yesterday after he collapsed during his side's FA Cup quarter-final match at Tottenham.
It quickly became apparent that the Bolton players were in no state to fulfil the fixture and the Premier League will rearrange the game at some point in the season.
