Argentina striker Diego Buonanotte, who played in the 2008 Olympics, was seriously hurt in a car crash which claimed the lives of three of his friends, a hospital source said on Sunday.



The 21-year-old River Plate star suffered lung damage as well as broken arms and a fractured right shoulder in the accident which happened when the car he was driving hit a tree in Sante Fe, in the north-east of the country.



Buonanotte, who is in a stable condition in a River Plate hospital, was the only passenger wearing a seatbelt.



"Diego remains in a stable condition, but we remain cautious knowing that the next 72 hours are the most critical," said Horacio Cavallieri, the doctor in charge.
