A study of male footballers in Sweden, over many years, found they were one and a half times more likely to develop dementia than the general population.Nearly 9% developed the condition compared with 6% of other people - but goalkeepers were not at higher risk, the research suggests.Heading the ball repeatedly has been linked to brain injury, yet there are many causes of dementia.
