Alone and homeless: Gazza
Ex-England ace Paul Gascoigne was being treated in hospital today as he faces being made homeless following another drinking binge.
Paramedics and cops were called after the football legend was seen slumped outside his flat clutching a bottle of vodka.
He was in the process of being evicted by his landlord from the property where neighbours had recently complained of the noise.
As he was taken away from his £3million rented penthouse apartment in the exclusive Sandbanks area of Poole, Dorset, Gazza phoned a friend to say: “I am in trouble, please can you come and help me.”

Slumped: Gazza was seen outside his flat with a bottle of vodka
He was being treated at Poole Hospital tonight.
A friend said: “It is very sad. But the reality is Paul has been drinking for the past few weeks and once that happens things will only end one way.
“Today things came to a head. He has had a lot on his plate as he is in the process of trying to find somewhere to live.
“His landlord had given him 10 days to get out of the flat and it was weighing on his mind. Obviously things became too much for him in the past couple of days and he has turned back to the bottle.”

Gaunt: Gazza cut a frail figure as a paramedic led him into a waiting ambulance
On Tuesday morning Paul was seen in a WHSmith near his plush home, which has a balcony overlooking the ocean.
He appeared drunk and unsteady on his feet as he posed for pictures with pals.
Today a spokesman for the star confirmed he was aware of the incident at Gazza’s apartment.

Unsteady: The Ex-England ace needed a helping hand into the back of the vehicle
A spokeswoman for South West Ambulance Service confirmed paramedics were called to attend to a patient in the area this afternoon.
The troubled retired former midfielder has been locked in a life-and-death struggle with booze for years.
His latest rehab stint was in January when he checked into a £6,000-a-month clinic in Southampton.
This was at least his seventh attempt to get professional help to quit alcohol.
Our pictures come after Gazza reportedly signed to play for Abbey Windows FC in Bournemouth’s Sunday football league - for a fee of just £8.
Gazza, who now lives in Dorset, could be turning out in Bournemouth’s Sunday league for Abbey Windows FC.
