- Gascoigne collapses at his home
- England icon rushed to hospital
- Friend says he is "stable but very poorly"
According to The Sun, the former Newcastle United and Tottenham star was hospitalised after a fall at his house last week. His friend and personal assistant, Steve Foster, found the ex-England international semi-conscious at his Poole property in Dorset and has now provided an update on his condition.
He told The Sun: “Paul is stable now but is still very poorly. But it shows how popular and loved he still is by fans everywhere. I can’t walk down the street with him without him being stopped – it’s crazy.”
Gascoigne is widely viewed as one of England’s greatest and most talented players and to this day, the 58-year-old is still a very popular figure. The report adds that he was transferred to an ICU ward following this health scare and is now in an acute medical unit where his condition was stable on Monday. Everyone will wish the ex-Rangers man, who caught the world’s attention for his displays and actions at the 1990 كأس العالم, makes a full recovery.
The former Lazio and Everton player, who earned 57 caps for his country, will continue to be looked after in hospital.
Foster added: “He’s been sleeping a lot of the time but is making progress and has managed to eat something. He’s been given a boost by all the messages of support.”
