According to reports in England, a Premier League player has been diagnosed with a laughing gas addiction after being found surrounded by canisters of illegal nitrous oxide in his flat in April.

A Premier League player was treated by the emergency services for his addiction to laughing gas, which he was thought to no longer suffer from after being in rehab. His identity is unknown but he is rumoured to have played for his U21 national team.

Paramedics went to his flat in the city centre of the team where he plays following a call from a member of his inner circle, who feared he may have relapsed into addiction. The player's club are aware of their man's problem. This practice can lead to serious heart attacks, as well as cardiovascular accidents and irreversible brain damage.

Kyle Walker, Raheem Sterling and Dele Alli were the most high-profile cases in the past. Even Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Alexandre Lacazette and Mesut Ozil in that Arsenal leak that was later joined by Jack Grealish.
