Paul Gascoigne 'back home and doing well' after hospital visit, representative says
'Paul voluntarily went into A&E on Friday after struggling with a throat condition he has had for a while,' Carly Saward at The MNT talent agency told The Associated Press in an email. 'He is already back home and doing well.'
British newspaper The Sun reported that the 58-year-old Gascoigne had been found 'semi-conscious' at home by a friend on Friday in Poole in south England and initially been admitted to an intensive care unit.
Gascoigne helped lead England to the semifinals at the 1990 World Cup and 1996 European Championship and was widely considered one of the most naturally talented players of his generation.
But he has battled alcohol addiction for decades and has also had other health problems in recent years.

Report – No Contact Between Inter Milan & RB Leipzig Over Netherlands Star
Inter Milan and RB Leipzig have not opened talks over Xavi Simons despite the Italian club's alleged interest in the Dutchman. According to L'Interista via TMW, there's been no contact between the two clubs over the 22-year-old's transfer. Xavi Simons yesterday emerged as a potential target for Inter. However, Atalanta star Ademola Lookman remains the top priority for Beppe Marotta and his associates. Therefore, the Dutch forward is only a backup option. Inter Milan & RB Leipzig Are Not in Contact over Xavi Simons LEIPZIG, GERMANY – MAY 03: Xavi Simons of RB Leipzig looks on during the Bundesliga match between RB Leipzig and FC Bayern München at Red Bull Arena on May 03, 2025 in Leipzig, Germany. (Photo by) With only two years left to run on his contract at the Red Bull Arena, Simons could be available on favorable terms. Though signing a player of his quality in a cut-price deal looks tempting, Inter have other priorities. Indeed, the Nerazzurri will focus completely on signing Lookman. After sorting out Hakan Calhanoglu's future, Marotta can return to work on the Nigerian's arrival. Despite agreeing on personal terms with the 27-year-old, Inter must still find an agreement with Atalanta. La Dea have slapped a €50 million price tag on Lookman, while Inter won't offer more than €40m.

'Chaos' as critically ill child dies in hospital
The parents of a 20-month-old toddler have described how their son died amid hospital "chaos" four hours after they heard him crying in bed. Artemis Sanson, or Arty as he was known to his family, passed away in June 2024 after suffering "complex febrile seizures". His parents believe their son's emergency treatment faced delays. Medway NHS Foundation Trust told the BBC it had no comment to make at the moment, but "will be issuing a statement once the inquest has concluded". Storm Sanson, Arty's mother, told the inquest that she had found her son in bed covered in vomit with mottled skin and blue lips. Arty was born with a hole in his heart which was operated on and his parents had been warned to call 999 if they noticed similar symptoms to what he was experiencing. Ms Sanson described how the ambulance journey lasted about an hour as paramedics tried to treat her son's multiple seizures. After arriving at Medway Maritime Hospital she said doctors were "arguing with each other and no one could seem to agree" about the best treatment plan for Arty. She said: "No parent wants to watch their child die in front of their eyes but I can promise you that it is etched into my brain." Jamie Stephenson, Arty's father, said there was "chaos" in the room where his son was being treated. "A lot of the staff seemed blasé about the whole situation," he said. "There was a lot of joking and two nurses were talking about what outfits they would wear at the weekend." Consultant paediatric pathologist Dr Liina Palm, who oversaw Arty's post-mortem examination, told coroner Catherine Wood she believed a pneumonia infection and sepsis played a part in the child's death. "Sepsis can become very rapid, and in my opinion that might explain why it would be so sudden" she said. The inquest has been adjourned. Follow BBC Kent on Facebook, on X, and on Instagram.
