Pennant has more than 50 stitches after dog attack
Former Premier League footballer Jermaine Pennant says he needed more than 50 stitches after being mauled by a dog.
Former Premier League footballer Jermaine Pennant revealed he suffered more than 50 stitches after a dog attack last week. The 43-year-old was out for a walk with his two dogs in north London when a German Shepherd latched onto his leg, refusing to let go despite his attempts to protect his companion, a dog named King. Pennant explained that King intervened, preventing a potentially disastrous situation, but suffered a minor injury in the process.
The incident occurred while Pennant was still a pundit at Talksport, having retired from professional football in 2018. He made 231 Premier League appearances during his 19-year career, starting out at Arsenal for £2.5 million.
