Wales and Luton Town defender Tom Lockyer has thanked medical staff for the care he received after collapsing at Wembley on Saturday.
Early on in the Championship play-off final, defender Lockyer went down to the floor with no-one near him, prompting hugely concerning scenes.
He was stretchered off and taken to hospital immediately, with his parents leaving their seats to be with their son who was conscious as he left the pitch.

Thankfully there was an update at half-time that he was responding, while after the penalty shootout - which the Hatters won against Coventry City - Lockyer's father posted a picture of the Welshman from his hospital bed celebrating promotion.
Lockyer has now posted himself from hospital, thanking everyone for their concern.
Lockyer wrote: “Well not quite where I thought I’d be celebrating at the final whistle! I would just like to say a massive thank you to the amazing physios and doctors at @ltfc_official and Wembley for the swift and thorough response.
“A much scarier moment for everyone else than myself I am sure! Commiserations to @coventrycityfcofficial a fantastic opponent over 3 games which had to be decided by penalties.
“I am currently in hospital under precaution and will stay here overnight further tests in the morning.
“I am feeling very much myself, helped by the way the lads left it all out on pitch! It’s such an honour to be part of this team… premier league baby.”
