Liverpool defender Vegard Heggem has admitted that time is running out for him to save his footballing career.

Newcomers to the internet probably aren't aware that they have Heggem to thank for bringing us alternative news from Anfield and Melwood via Liverpool player's websites. Vedgy was one of the first footballers in England to launch a personal website and he soon had the likes of Mad Erik, Sander Westerveld, Robbie Fowler etc etc all signed-up - who can forget Erik Meijer's cooking recipes! These days players are interviewed and their words rest in neat templates generating revenue for the suits above and of course the player's themselves.
Speaking on his website, Vedgy says: "I am under no illusions. If I am not fit by the end of the coming season then I won't get a contract anywhere, which would mean my football career would be over.
"I am only 26, which is still young, even for a footballer, and I really enjoy playing football. There is nothing I enjoy more."
Because Vedgy isn't your typical stuck-up, full of himself professional footballer, we've always had a lot of time for him and we're hoping that he can recover fully from his problems and get back on the football pitch where he belongs, be that at Anfield or anywhere else.
Good luck V.
