Footballers are more likely to develop worse brain health over the age of 65 than those in the general population, according to new research published on Friday.
The SCORES Project, which uses online activities to assess individuals’ cognitive function and monitor brain health decline, is based at the University of East Anglia. The study involves 145 former elite footballers including former Norwich stars Iwan Roberts and Jeremy Goss, plus ex-Crystal Palace striker Mark Bright.
