Ajax midfielder Abdelhak Nouri has left intensive care two-and-a-half weeks after suffering permanent brain damage having collapsed during a pre-season friendly.
The 20-year-old has been moved to a 'medium care' department, is no longer in an induced coma and can breathe on his own, the club said in a statement issued on behalf of his family.
The statement said there was no change to the overall outlook, though, with Nouri " stable, but with severe and lasting brain damage".
Nouri collapsed during a match with Werder Bremen in Hippach, Austria, on July 8.
Tuesday's statement added: "The Nouri family once again thanks everyone who has given their support and asks everyone to continue to pray for Abdelhak."
