In May, Tottenham senior, who stood alongside Tottenham captain Son Heung-min (33, LA FC) and won the European Europa League trophy, revealed his cancer-fighting experience, causing fans to feel sorry.
England defender Graham Roberts, 66, who played in Tottenham's uniform for six years from 1980 to 1986, recently said on his personal SNS that he was diagnosed with prostate cancer and is currently receiving radiation treatment and hopes to participate in a walking event with his daughter to raise funds for prostate cancer.
Roberts' daughter Holly posted on her personal social media page, "One person dies of prostate cancer every 45 minutes. It's half the time of a football game. But it doesn't have to be that way. In October, I will join Prostate United and take the lead in saving men's lives by walking 5km every day with a soccer fan. My father is also going to walk every week after treatment. We ask for your support as it will be used to raise research funds to save the lives of men and their families suffering from this disease."

Roberts also said "I'll try to walk as much as I can."
The Tottenham club expressed their support 'We all support you, Robbo'.
Roberts and Son Heung-min are linked by the Europa League trophy. Roberts won the 1984 UEFA Cup (the predecessor of the Europa League). He scored a crucial goal in the second leg of the final against Anderlecht. He also presented his second consecutive FA Cup title in 1981 and 1982. Son Heung-min helped break Tottenham's long-standing relationship by beating Manchester United in the Europa League final last season, 41 years later.
Roberts, who visited the stadium to cheer on the day, took a picture with Son Heung-min holding the Europa League trophy side by side after the game.
Roberts has been one of the seniors who has consistently supported and supported his junior Son Heung-min. Pushing Son Heung-min as Tottenham's player of the year in 2020"With Harry Kane absent for a long time, Son has certainly contributed to the team. I gave everything for the team, played hard, and didn't lose my smile."
