“An hour before the match against Lyon began, our babysitter called me to tell me that I was in the ambulance on the way to the hospital with my children. The youngest opened his head when he slipped while playing with Ted-Louie (his older brother) and fell down our glass stairs,” said Maja Nilsson Lindelöf chatting with his followers in ‘Snapchat’.

The footballer's partner described that “Francis's forehead was left in two and had to undergo emergency plastic surgery.”

“It was the first time that this happened to us, it was very unpleasant and it is something that I definitely do not want to repeat. We had to stay in the hospital until Saturday and my son will have a great scar on the forehead. The operation went well and Francis has returned to normal. He is a Viking. They were all very worried, but he continues his life as if nothing had happened,” said Maja Nilsson.

The Lindelöf have been married since May 2018 and wait for their third child together at the end of this year.
