Muamba, pictured with Dr Andrew Deaner and Dr Sam Mohiddin of the Barts Health NHS Trust on his discharge, said: “Their dedication, professionalism and expertise is simply amazing and I will forever be in their debt. I also wish to say thank you to all the many well-wishers who have sent thousands of messages of support.”
And in a joint press release issued by the Trust and his club, the midfielder continued: “Now I am out of hospital, I am looking forward to continuing my recovery and spending precious time with my family.”
