Former Chelsea defender Jakob Kjeldbjerg, 49, who announced his retirement at the age of 27 due to a career-threatening knee injury, is now a successful TV host in Denmark.

Kjeldbjerg, who is now living in the South of France, is currently presenting TV3's most popular reality TV show, Robinson Ekspeditionen and hosts I'm a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here. Kjeldbjerg recalled the moment he was told his life in football was over and told British tabloid, The Sun: "I was outside the London Independent Hospital with Mike Banks, the Chelsea physio. We had just seen a massive hole in my knee and I was asked what I wanted to do after football. Basically, they were saying that's it."
