Fallen football hero Paul Gascoigne has thanked the Premier League stars who stumped up cash to save his life, but has warned them he 'may drink again'.

Speaking on Alan Carr's TV chat programme Chatty Man, the former England star thanked his friends - among them Wayne Rooney and Steven Gerrard - for paying for his recent stint in rehab.

But the 45-year-old then said he would not rule out going on another drinking binge.

He said it had been three months since he had had a drink and admitted that he missed alcohol

He added: 'I do miss a pint. I’ll never say never. I might drink again in the future'
