Jesse Lingard breaks his silence. The English midfielder told the Daily Mail how his mother's depression affected his own mental health. A way to exorcise the demons that persecute him and to break the often imperceptible barrier that separates the player from the human being:

"I thought about leaving England. Not to go to Spain, but to China or Saudi Arabia, somewhere I would have been out of the spotlight to focus only on football. I had received a lot of insults on social media. Then my brother sent me some videos from the past years, convincing me to stay in England. I told myself I could do it"

The new beginning: "The brace on my debut with West Ham helped me grow. I remember the times when I drank at night, it wasn't me. Everything was so fuzzy in my head, I kept everything to myself and I used the alcohol to try to relieve the pain. When I finally opened up with my family, they really helped me"
