Former Liverpool defender Jose Enrique has spoken about his experience with serious illness after receiving treatment for a brain tumour.
The 32-year-old retired from football in 2017 due to a knee injury and was diagnosed with a rare neurological condition which required surgery and radiotherapy in 2018.
Speaking to Spanish newspaper Marca (h/t Alex Cope of the Mirror), the former full-back, who also played for Newcastle United, explained the events before and after his diagnosis last year. The Spaniard had started a new career as a football agent when symptoms first struck.
