VILLARREAL star Pablo Fornals was rushed to hospital after fainting in training ahead of his side’s clash against Barcelona.
The playmaker suffered an attack of hypoglycaemia – low blood sugar – and is said to be under observation in a hospital in Castellon.
El Pais claimed Fornals’ episode occurred in training last night.
They also claim he will not feature in the La Liga clash against leaders Barcelona.
Fornals is believed to have been OK after fainting but was still sent for tests with doctors.
Hypoglycaemia mainly affects people with diabetes.
