Wayne Lineker has said he almost died after being hospitalised with "extremely dangerous" pneumonia.
The Ibiza club owner and brother of Gary Lineker, 63, had initially suspected Covid-19 or a heart attack after falling ill on a flight.
In an update from hospital posted on his Instagram on Tuesday (2 December), Wayne said the last 16 days had been the "most traumatic" of his life, and a "near-death experience."
"I honestly don’t think I would have been medically strong enough to survive it if I wasn’t four months sober," he added, sharing a heartfelt thank-you message to the NHS staff who have cared for him.
