George Best was discharged from a Cyprus clinic today, fully recovered from a stomach bug caught during his stay on the holiday island.
"He was discharged this morning and is now back at his hotel. He is in very good shape," his doctor, Andreas Stylianides, said.
The former Manchester United and Northern Ireland player (55) was admitted to a private clinic last Thursday. Doctors diagnosed an infection of the gastrointestinal tract that required antibiotics.
"He responded very well to treatment," Stylianides said.
