Former Aston Villa, Manchester United and Leicester City footballer Colin Gibson today announces that he has dementia at 62, saying he no longer wants to hide his condition and hopes it helps others.
Ahead of the 40-year anniversary of Villa's 1982 European Cup triumph, Colin, with the support of his loving wife, Kim, spoke to Sportsmail to explain why 'it's time' to reveal his early-onset diagnosis from November 2021.
'I'm not going to go down without a fight,' says Colin, who first started showing signs of the disease in 2016 and continues to work as a match-day host for Leicester at the King Power Stadium.
