Soccer star, Rudy Kass, is likely to be allowed out of hospital today after having treats for mus-cle problems that stopped him from playing in an important European cup game in Frankfurt on Thursday.

    "The cause of the problem is still unclear. Something is eausing Rudy pain, but the doctors are not sure what, "said Rudy's doctor."I hope we will all know the answer tomorrow, so that treatment can begin."

Rudy, one of Germany' s highest paid centre - forwards, has been in hospital for two nights since suddenly leaving the field in the second half of a game that ended in his team' s defeat.
