Former England and Bath player Steve Ojomoh in hospital following stroke

The 48-year-old, who was capped 12 times and made four appearances at the 1995 World Cup, was admitted into Bristol's Southmead Hospital earlier this week.

"We can confirm Oj (Steve) has had a stroke, and he's not out of risk yet," Ojomoh's family said in a statement on the Bath website.

"The ICU team at Southmead are doing a fantastic job and we will keep everyone updated when we have news, but our focus is on Oj. Thank you."

Ojomoh was a central figure during Bath's glory days of the 1990s, winning 10 trophies before departing for spells at Gloucester and in Italy and Wales.
