• Knee injury and lengthy ensuing absence triggered depression
Danny Rose revealed he has had depression which he believes was triggered by the treatment of a knee injury coupled with family tragedy. In an extraordinary interview days before he flies with England to the World Cup, the Tottenham left-back said he lost track of the number of times he was injected with blood-spinning and painkilling drugs.
The 27-year-old’s mental health deteriorated as he contended with the triple trauma of his uncle killing himself, his mum Angela being racially abused and an assailant shooting at his brother inside the family home.
