Jan Vertonghen has revealed he suffered from mental health issues in the aftermath of a head injury sustained while playing for Tottenham in a Champions League match back in 2010.
The 36-year-old suffered the concussion following a head collision with his then team-mate Toby Alderweireld, as the duo competed for the ball with Ajax goalkeeper Andre Onana in the first leg of a Champions League semi-final.
Vertonghen initially played on following medical checks, with Tottenham's club doctors having been correct in their handling of the incident.
He was substituted within minutes after being seen throwing up and stumbling on the pitch.
