I have to confess I'd either forgotten about this or didn't realize quite how bad it was.
Absolutely harrowing stuff: “At that moment you can do something stupid, trying to move your leg or trying to get out of the car, so I have to thank that stranger for talking to me, for telling me to wait and trust the ambulance people who were coming. But even when he was talking to me I was nervous. The door was on my leg and I didn’t know what was going on. The only thing I had in Africa growing up was my dream of being a footballer. I only have my legs to do that. I was worried. I was scared, thinking about my career.” https://www.theguardian.com/football/2017/sep/18/pape-souare-crystal-palace-car-crash-interview
Saw him speaking about it at the weekend in a tv interview. Sounds like a great lad. Wish him all the best and hope he has a great career...after the stripey mugs!
