Ex-Arsenal star Kenny Sansom dealing with alcoholic issues day by day

Former Arsenal star Kenny Sansom has revealed that he is dealing with his drinking problems "one day at a time".

The 54-year-old, who has had alcohol and gambling issues, revealed last month that he has spent a period of time homeless, but has insisted that he is now sober.

"I feel really good," Sansom told Sky Sports News. "I'd say I'm reasonably confident, but as an alcohol I can't say that I'll never drink again.

"I'd be kidding myself because you'll never know. I'll take one day at a time. I was drinking to forget about my problems."

The Professional Footballers' Association offered their help to Sansom following his revelation.
