Arsenal pledge Sansom support

Arsenal have pledged to continue their support of former England full-back Kenny Sansom, who is homeless and battling alcoholism.

The 54-year-old, who made 86 appearances for the Three Lions between 1979 and 1988 and played at the World Cup twice, told The Sun how he had struggled with personal problems which had hampered him for several years.

The PFA and his former club have offered help to Sansom, who had been staying with his sister Mary until recently.
