Premier League laughing gas addicts have been warned of the potential neurological damage the illegal drug can cause.

The message comes after Mail Sport revealed this week that a top-flight footballer was aided by emergency services after being found surrounded by canisters of illegal nitrous oxide at his city centre flat.

It is thought that the player, who we are choosing not to name, had fallen off the wagon after attending rehab to try and kick his habit.

Nitrous oxide, known as ‘hippy crack’, is contained in canisters, which can be super-sized.
