Rangers legend Paul Gascoigne to launch tell all new autobiography reflecting on rollercoaster life
Ibrox icon Gascoigne is telling his life story in his own words for the first time.
Rangers legend Paul Gascoigne is set to release his tell-all new autobiography reflecting on the highs and lows of an incredible life and career in his own words for the first time.
The book's title, Paul Gascoigne: Eight, references the iconic squad number worn by Gascoigne during his pomp at Ibrox, where he enjoyed a trophy-laden spell under legendary boss Walter Smith and cemented his status as a modern day Rangers icon.
Once regarded as the most gifted English player of his generation, Gascoigne also played for the likes of Newcastle, Lazio, Tottenham Hotspur, Middlesbrough, Everton and the England National Team, and promises to examine his life through a new, more balanced, and positive lens.
A 2022 BBC documentary on his life was watched by millions across the UK and beyond, and now he will truly be able to share the real Paul behind the headlines, promising fans the real Paul Gascoigne rather than his Gazza alter-ego.
The book will be released in October this year and speaking ahead of its launch, Gascoigne said: 'Eight is all about the eight emotions that've run riot through my all in the same afternoon! It's got everything – the laughs, the tears, the madness – and probably a few things I'll regret saying once me mam reads it!'
Paul Gascoigne: Eight will be published in hardback and ebook, with the audiobook released simultaneously in collaboration with W. F. Howes Ltd.
Paul Gacoigne: Eight will be published by Reach Sport October 23rd, rrp £22. Preorder on Amazon now.
