Liverpool chief Kenny Dalglish said on Tuesday he is undergoing treatment for cancer.
Dalglish, who won more than 30 trophies for Liverpool as a player and manager, announced the diagnosis on social media.
«As my inadvertent social media post indicated, I am currently undergoing treatment for cancer. Unlike my cell phone use, treatment is going well,» the 75-year-old wrote on Instagram.
“Ideally, this would have remained private because that’s how it should be, but my useless technological skills forced me to do so.
“It was obviously not my intention to make this matter public, so I would appreciate the privacy of my family and myself being respected.”
Dalglish scored 172 goals for Liverpool in 13 seasons as a player, winning six league titles and three European Cups during the Merseyside club’s glory years.
He later took over as manager and led Anfield to three league titles and two FA Cups in the 1980s.
Kevin Keegan, another prolific former Liverpool striker, revealed on Monday that he has stage four cancer.
