Asamoah broke his neck in a freak accident as he collided with an advertising board during a club game in China.

Togolese international footballer Samuel Asamoah broke his neck after colliding with a pitch-side advertising board during a domestic fixture in China, his club says, fearing he may be left paralysed.

Video footage shows the 31-year-old being shoved by an opponent during a match on Sunday in China’s second-tier League One as they jostle for the ball, ploughing head-first into an LED advertising panel.
