“Kos was able to leave the hospital, which is a great relief,” Irena Kistinis told Het Nieuwsblad.
“The circulatory problems were apparently due to dehydration.”
She added: “The club is being very cautious and wants to rule out all possibilities through various tests.”
Karetsas has been ruled out of this weekend’s Bundesliga match by head coach Niko Kovac, and sporting director Ole Book gave a further update.
“He is doing well under the circumstances,” he said.
“Further investigations are underway, we want to get to the bottom of this matter.
“But it’s clear that we’re prioritising the player’s health and the player’s overall well-being.”
