Sean Cox: Liverpool supporter to leave hospital for first time since suffering serious injury to attend legends match on Friday
Sean Cox, the Liverpool supporter who suffered catastrophic head injuries in an attack by Roma fans last April, will leave hospital for the first time to attend a charity match organised to raise funds for his treatment.Mr Cox was assaulted before Liverpool’s Champions League semi-final match at Anfield 12 months ago.3

Mr Cox has been under care since the assault last April

The Dunboyne man suffered a bleed on his brain after impact injuries to his head, and he required emergency surgery.Mr Cox spent months receiving specialist neurological care at Dublins Beaumont Hospital, before being transferred to a rehabilitation centre.He is now set to leave hospital for the first time in almost a year to attend Dublin’s Aviva Stadium on Friday, April 14. A Liverpool Legends XI take on an Irish Legends XI in a charity match in aid of the Sean Cox Rehabilitation Trust, and Mr Cox is in line to be at the match.Stephen Felle, a close fried of Mr Cox, told Newstalk Breakfast: “Were delighted to say that Sean is going to be there in person.“Its going to be Sean Coxs first move outside a medical environment in almost 12 months, so its very special for the family, and its very emotional for [his wife] Martina.3

The Sean Cox Rehabilitation Trust was set-up to help fund Mr Cox’s treatment

“She said he does [know hes going]… she said he does, and hes excited he keeps smiling, and he cant wait.”There is a chance Mr Cox may have to miss the match, however, should his condition worsen between now and Friday.“It has taken a lot of planning,” Mr Felle added. “He is obviously medically dependent, and in terms of the logistics of getting him to there and making sure hes properly cared for when in the stadium have taken some work.“The caveat is if Sean got an infection or a cold or something happens between now and Friday, we might have to change the plan.3

“But as we sit here now thats the plan.”The likes of Niall Quinn, John Aldridge and Robbie Fowler are set to feature in the fundraiser, with Reds legend Kenny Dalglish managing a Liverpool XI captained by Ian Rush.A Roma supporter, Simone Mastrelli, was jailed for three-and-a-half years in February after pleading guilty to the assault of Mr Cox.
