Former City midfielder Michael Brown has opened up about his shock cancer diagnosis
Michael Brown, the former footballer, manager and now popular pundit, has opened up about his shock cancer diagnosis which came at the start of the first coronavirus lockdown in early 2020. The player began his career with Manchester City after coming up through their youth ranks and was named the club's Player of the Year in 1998, appearing 88 times for the club and scoring two goals.
"You hope it's not, you wait for the biopsy - and it's that waiting time which is difficult. But for me, they caught it at the right time, early enough to treat, and I had the right people treating it." Tomorrow , Michael will be pitch side in his role as a pundit, commentating on the Manchester City semi-final at Wembley - where the 46-year-old's first major club will play another team he spent years at, Sheffield United. The morning after, Michael will take on the London Marathon on Sunday, April 23, to raise money for The Christie.
"With the amazing care and medical support from HCA Hospital, Dr Sally Harris, Stephanie Ogden and [The Christie], I am cancer free, and was ready for a challenge of my own," Michael wrote on his JustGiving page. "Having been a professional footballer, friends and family thought this would be an easy task, but it has been my toughest challenge yet."
