Stuart Pearce 'planning homecoming' after major health scare at 30,000 feet that left England hero in Canadian hospital

<p>Pearce suffered a <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/england-stuart-pearce-recovering-canadian-hospital-medical-emergency-on-board-flight-las-vegas-heathrow/blt82ac35c1635257fb#csb323e83b95249407" target="_blank">medical emergency while on a Virgin Atlantic flight from Las Vegas to Heathrow</a>. After monitoring him for some time, the flight's course changed, and it made an emergency landing at St John’s in Canada. Pearce was then guided by the medics to a hospital. As per the latest update from <a href="https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/33783182/stuart-pearce-health-update-flight/" target="_blank"><em>The Sun</em></a>, the former England star is recovering well following an eight-day stay at the Canadian hospital. Pearce has been discharged and is now said to be "planning his homecoming" after a terrifying ordeal.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The former Nottingham Forest and Manchester City star, who now works as a pundit for talkSPORT, visited Vegas to watch his rugby league team, Warrington Wolves, play Wigan Warriors. He was on his way back to his homeland when the incident happened. During last weekend's Premier League clash between Forest and City, fans from both sides applauded in the third minute of the game in a show of support for Pearce.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Pearce's <em>talkSPORT </em>colleague, Sam Matterface, told the listeners: "I spoke to him yesterday, and he was in great spirits. He isn’t 100 per cent — that is definitely the case. But he’s in the right place in the hospital."</p>

WHAT HAS BEEN SAID

<p>With Canadian doctors satisfied with Pearce's recovery, they have decided to discharge the Three Lions icon, and he will soon be able to resume his punditry duties.</p>
