IAN WRIGHT needed medical treatment after falling down the stairs on Monday.
The Arsenal legend, 61, was in Switzerland to help host the Women’s Euros draw.
But things took a worrying turn at the Swiss Tech Convention Centre.
Wright slipped and tumbled down the staircase – just weeks after undergoing surgery.
And he needed to be helped by World Cup legends Leonardo Bonucci and Sami Khedira.
As reported by the Daily Mail, it is understood Wright was given an ice pack and was not seriously injured in the fall.

Wright had knee replacement surgery seven weeks ago.
