Danny Rose: Club Wanted to See I Was Not Crazy After Opening Up on Depression

Tottenham Hotspur left-back Danny Rose has revealed a club interested in him last summer wanted to check he was "not crazy" after he spoke publicly about suffering from depression.

Rose opened up alongside players past and present in an upcoming documentary, A Royal Team Talk: Tackling Mental Health.

Per BBC Sport, he said:

"I was speaking to another club in the summer and they said, 'the club would like to meet you, just to check that you're not crazy,' because of what I'd said and what I'd been through.
