England legend Paul Gascoigne has taken to twitter to deny rumours that he had died.

Rumours began circulating yesterday that the former Newcastle United player had passed away, but these were unfounded rumours and were quickly quashed.

Gascoigne took to twitter to reassure his fans that he is alive and well.
He tweeted: “Had loads of texts and calls yesterday from friends and family calling and texting me worried that I’m dead.

“Ha I laughed because if someone is dead I would not text the person because he is dead ha.
“But I appreciate the care so I went to the chemist and got some benylin to get rid of the coffin ha…Love GAZZA X.
“Ps. Well done England.”
