The good news is that he should still be there, so we have reasons to believe that it's nothing too serious, but more to follow.
A Medical Issue for Juraj Slafkovsky?
We have few details at the moment.

As many fans mention in the comments, we know how important it is for Slafkovsky to represent his country (and it's to his credit), but knowing this, would it be better for him to rest and skip this year?
Case to follow.
