Borussia Dortmund midfielder Emre Can has opened up about his battle with thyroid cancer, which was discovered following his transfer from Liverpool to Juventus in 2018. The doctors of the Turin club diagnosed the problem, the player of the German national team had to undergo urgent surgery.
Emre Can“I had thyroid cancer, so I needed an emergency operation. It changed a lot in my life. You can have a lot of money, you can have everything, but health is the most important thing. It's a part of life, and I encourage everyone to get tested, no matter how healthy they are. If you learn about these things in time, you can overcome them.
I am very grateful to the Juventus doctors. I received a call two months after the medical examination at the club. I didn't know what was going on, I didn't even know what a thyroid was, and I never would have thought I had cancer," Gian told DAZN.
We will remind that in 2022, the striker of "Borussia" Sebastian Alle won his battle with cancer.
