David Reus, the former Arsenal star, returned to the Barclays Premier League last year to join Farminco, aiming to regain the triple crown of the Barclays Premier League, the Brazilian Cup and the Copa Libertadores. However, the recent breaking news that David Reus has contracted viral hepatitis and is in a critical condition could pose a major challenge to the team's chances of winning the title.
It wasn't so long ago that FALINGO beat São Paulo 3-1 in the first leg of the quarterfinals of the Copa do Brasil, however David Reis was substituted after only half a game. After the match, he revealed, "I'm experiencing some serious problems and need further tests, I'll let you know when the results are in." According to Brazilian media reports, David Reis was diagnosed with viral hepatitis and has been suffering from fatigue, insomnia, headaches and sinusitis in the last two weeks.
