Former Chelsea Assistant Ray Wilkins suffered a cardiac arrest and is critically ill according to reports in England.

Wilkins who also played for Chelsea, oversaw the growth and development of Nigerian star Mikel Obi between 2008 and 2010 when he served as assistant and caretaker manager.

The 61-year-old former England International suffered the attack on Friday, as per Mail Sport and was taken to St George’s Hospital in Tooting, London, where he has been put in an induced coma.

Both Wilkins and Mikel shared a memorable moment when Chelsea won the league double in 2009-10 with the league title and FA Cup.
