Former Tottenham and England midfielder Paul Gascoigne has returned home to recover.
The 58-year-old, former Tottenham player was admitted to intensive care on Friday after a health scare. His friend, Steve Foster found him semi-conscious in his apartment and took him to the A&E.
His management company released a statement on Monday saying, “Paul voluntarily went into A&E (Accident and Emergency) on Friday after struggling with a throat condition (not by ambulance) he has had for a while,” “He is already back home and doing well.”
Gascoigne was treated by intensive care staff and later moved to an acute medical unit until he was stable enough to be released.
Paul Gascoigne who has played for Newcastle, Tottenham, Lazio, Rangers, Middlesbrough and Everton has been open about his struggles with alcohol addiction and depression.
In a bid to take control of his life in 2020, Gascoigne admitted to having anti-alcohol pellets sewn into his stomach.
But last year, he confessed on the High Performance podcast that he was a “sad drunk” living in a spare room at the home of his agent.
