Paul Gascoigne has been admitted to a treatment centre in the United States.

The former England midfielder's unsteady appearance at a function last week sparked new fears about his wellbeing after years battling alcoholism.

Gascoigne's agent publicly urged him to seek help, and after messages of support from the world of football the 45-year-old is now undergoing treatment for his condition.

A statement from his management company GamePlan Solutions read: "Alcoholic Paul Gascoigne has been experiencing a tough time of late.

"He has been asking for help and has willingly been admitted to a treatment centre in America. He has complex issues that are currently being dealt with by professionals.

"Paul has been extremely touched and overwhelmed by the generous offers of help and support over the past few days. He is motivated to fully understand and control his addiction problem under guidance."
