Interesting story.
As outsiders we always believe a professional footballer has to be the job anybody would want to have.
I shouldn't be surprised anymore when stories like the above come out as it appears to happen more and more.
The stress must be unbelievable at times with your every waking minute being scrutinized.
Just shows that sometimes you just have to walk away regardless of what you are giving up in respect of money, fame etc to improve your quality of life.
