He's severely injured, according to a tweet quoted in this report

Edit: Very pleased to say that it is nowhere near as serious as that report suggested!

Hope it isn't too bad and the initial reports are wrong are jumping to conclusions

It would be likely he might been filming something about their time here and the fight for falklands during the 82 cup final iirc

Get better Ossie, Ricky and co.

Ex-Tottenham midfielder Ossie Ardiles has been involved in a car accident in the Falkland Islands, according to South Atlantic News Agency MercoPress.

Ardiles, 61, was believed to have been driving, with fellow ex-Argentina midfielder Ricky Villa a passenger.

The pair are in the Falkland Islands for a TV documentary which Ardiles' son, who was in the car, is directing.

Four passengers have been released from hospital after treatment for minor injuries with three others detained.

Local emergency services and the British military reportedly attended the scene of the accident with those involved flown to King Edward Memorial hospital in Stanley.

There has been no statement about the extent of injuries received or confirmation of who has been kept in hospital.

Apparently it's 21 stiches in head. That's a lot of stitches. This info tweeted by Mickey Hazard. Ossie is ok

Ouch.... he was one of my fav player when I was a little kid.... Thank God.

Hmm... those were the glory days when we had the Argentines.... I think we need one more to partner Lamela to bring the glories back.

No Messi, no Aguero... but realistically we can sign Mauro Icardi

Glad it's not as serious as at first feared to be and hope they will all be back in full health quickly.

Ossie and Ricky should travel separately, like royalty!
