Henri Lansbury reveals he overcame testicular cancer whilst at Nottingham Forest, after retired star discovered a lump while in the shower after training

Henri Lansbury has bravely revealed how he overcame testicular cancer during his time at Nottingham Forest.

The former Arsenal academy star called an end to his playing career during the summer, as he set his sights on a brand new career outside of being a footballer.

Now, following his retirement, Lansbury has opened up on one of the most difficult moments of his career, which came during his time at Forest.

The midfielder played for Forest between 2012-2017 and, during that time, was forced to overcome the worrying health issue, thanks to club doctors.
