Tragedy in Cagliari: Yael Trepy Admitted to the ICU

These are hours of great fear for Cagliari forward Yael Trepy, who is currently in intensive care at the Santissima Annunziata Hospital in Sassari following an accident in a swimming pool. The Sardinian club itself reported the news.

The accident occurred in Porto Cervo on Sunday, when the entire team was enjoying a day off following their Coppa Italia victory over Arezzo. Trepy, who nearly drowned in the pool and lost consciousness, was immediately transported to the hospital, where he was intubated.

As reported by *Corriere della Sera*, the player underwent all necessary tests: a chest CT scan revealed a significant amount of fluid in his lungs, which impairs normal oxygenation. The medical team treating him has decided to keep him in a medically induced coma and under close, continuous observation.

“Cagliari Calcio announces that soccer player Yael Trepy is currently hospitalized at the ‘Santissima Annunziata’ Civil Hospital in Sassari, where he is in intensive care,” reads the club’s statement. The club is in constant contact with the hospital and the player’s family and is closely monitoring the evolution of his condition. At this time, all of Cagliari Calcio’s thoughts are with Yael and his family. The club also asks for the utmost respect for their privacy and will provide updates as they become available.” Trepy, 20, joined Cagliari in 2022 and made his first-team debut on January 8, 2026, against Cremonese, scoring a goal right away.
