Former Tottenham and Newcastle star David Ginola is feared to be in a coma after a skiing accident in France. The 45-year-old suffered 'multiple bruises and throat injuries' after crashing into another skier at the resort of Portes du Mont-Blanc in what has been described as a 'severe collision' by local newspaper Le Dauphine Libere. Ginola - who played in the top flight in England in the 1990s - was examined by doctors and after being put under observation he was allowed back to his hotel following the accident on Tuesday afternoon. However, his injuries have meant Ginola has been forced to cancel his appearance at this week's Winter Golf Trophy in the nearby resort of Megeve - the world's only snow golf competition. Ginola made millions from his playing career in Britain and France as well as becoming the face of a series of 'Because You're Worth It' L'Oreal shampoo commercials. He now lives near the millionaire's playground of St Tropez in the south of France with his wife, Coraline, a former fashion model, and children Andrea and Carla.
Re: No mention of coma at all... "and spent 90 minutes on the freezing snow" Again, much like his playing days.
