Domenico Pozzovivo's wife
quoted the Italian cyclist as telling her "they've ended my
career" after he was hit by a car while training near the
Calabrian town of Dipignano.
The 36-year-old team Bahrain-Merida rider suffered broken
bones in his arms and legs and is currently sedated in hospital
in Cosenza after undergoing surgery.
"He's in pain," Pozzovivo's wife, Valentina Conte, told ANSA.
"He is out of danger but the situation is serious.
"When he woke up this morning he just said 'let me go home'".
