Paul Gascoigne will be remembered forever as one of the most talented players in the history of English football - and also as one of the craziest of them all.
In an interview with the podcast The Anything Goes, the 53-year-old former actor talked about the difficult breakup with his father, John, who died of cancer in 2018.
It turns out that even when it comes to the death of a family member, "Gaza" copes in different ways than the average person.
"When it was just me and him in the hospital room and he was dead, I jumped on the bed and started beating him," he said.
"I bumped into him, slapped him, reprimanded him for the days when I was younger. Then I just lay there and hugged him for 45 minutes."
Gascoigne further described the relationship between him and his father: "I really liked taking him with me around the world when I played, I guess we had more good times than bad times together. I miss him the most on Saturdays, but he was so dry. He talked to everyone - and no. "I probably bought him something like 80 cars, boats and houses. When I got divorced, I gave a lot of money to my family, I spent a lot of money on all kinds of different houses."

If that's not enough, then the legendary former player added an equally delusional story about Gary Lineker, with whom he collaborated at Tottenham in the 1990s: "I remember when we signed him, I was a little fired up about him. He did not have a single hair on his whole body. I remember telling him, "Lineker, you're like a fucking ladyboy. He just laughed. I knew where he lived, so after training I flew home, parked him in the parking lot and went out to London. I stayed out all night so he had to park on the street and got a report. The manager called me. And said, 'You must stop this, Liniker is boiling over you.' "
