The club’s statement on Wednesday afternoon said that “the session was interrupted to provide assistance. It went on that Casillas was in a Porto hospital “well, stable and his heart problem solved.”
In addition to domestic honours with Real and Porto, Casillas has won one World Cup, two Euros, and three Champions Leagues.
