Jonas Gutierrez has today taken to twitter to celebrate beating testicular cancer.
The former Newcastle and Argentina wide-man had been diagnosed in October 2013, and many feared the worst when in September of this year Gutierrez announced that the cancer had spread to other parts of his body, but today, he thanked his followers for all the support he received as he announced that he had been discharged from hospital having been given the all clear.
