Chelsea legend Michael Ballack has tumour removed Successfully from his spine and is cleared of cancer

The Blues legend suffered a health scare during the lockdown period but is much better now.

Michael Ballack had a tumour removed from near his spinal cord after suffering a health scare during the lockdown period.

According to Bild, the Chelsea legend had a tumour discovered on his body during an MRI examination by doctors.

But the early detection proved fortunate for the 43-year-old, and the tumour was removed before the situation worsened.

Laboratory examinations then cleared Ballack of any fears that the growth was cancerous, with results showing it was benign.

He has been recovering in Portugal for the past five weeks and is in much better health now!
