Arsenal set to help Emmanuel Eboue after he revealed he'd contemplated suicide with North London giants set to 'explore' ways to aid Ivory Coast star

Since he hit rock-bottom and admitted he had contemplated suicide Emmanuel Eboue has been inundated by football fans wishing him well - and now former club Arsenal are set to become involved in a bid to help.

Gunners cult hero Eboue revealed he had seriously considered taking his own life after financial mismanagement has left him penniless, with a bitter divorce meaning he has been estranged from his three children since the summer.

But the North London side - who he played for between 2005 and 2011 - are set to examine ways they can support the popular Eboue.
