Former France, PSG defender Jean-Pierre Adams dies 39 years after falling into a coma [View all]
https://www.espn.com/soccer/france-fra/story/4469508/former-francepsg-defender-jean-pierre-adams-dies-39-years-after-falling-into-a-comaFormer France defender Jean-Pierre Adams has died at the age of 73, almost 40 years after falling into a coma following a medical error, his former clubs, Paris Saint-Germain and Nimes, said on Monday.
In 1982, Adams was administered a near-fatal dose of anaesthetic ahead of a routine knee operation, which caused brain damage.
The Dakar-born Adams had won 22 caps for Les Bleus in the 1970s.
He played for Nimes from 1970-73 and for PSG from 1977-79 after joining from Nice.
