A woman has been charged following a devastating motorway collision that resulted in Jordan Chiedozie, the son of ex-Tottenham Hotspur[1] star John, losing his leg.
The ex-Bournemouth[2] and Southend United player was struck by a vehicle whilst attending to a punctured tyre on the M27's hard shoulder. Anna Bogusiewicz, 45, faces charges of causing serious injury by dangerous driving and drink driving.
Her case will be heard at Southampton Crown Cout, where it has been scheduled for December 1.
The collision occurred on February 1 as Chiedozie, then playing for Hampshire club Bashley FC, travelled home from a match alongside physio Reighan Taylor.
The incident happened on the eastbound carriageway between junctions two and three, where Chiedozie had stopped to inspect his vehicle's tyre. The impact left him with "multiple broken bones and other physical injuries" and he was also required to be put into an induced coma.
Tragically, surgeons were also forced to amputate his leg. Chiedozie, whose father John previously played for Spurs between 1984 and 1988, has recently opened up about the devastating incident.
He said: "I think you just have to [stay positive], you just have to get on with it.
If you stay too much thinking of what happened and the past, I don't think it helps with the recovery and being able to get as close as to normal as before, going forward."
In a candid chat with the BBC, he also added: "It takes time, but I'm getting there in terms of recovery - I'm getting better. I've still got a long journey, learning a whole new lifestyle with the prosthetic leg."

He also drew parallels to the tragic demise of Liverpool forward Diogo Jota and his brother Andre Silva, who were killed in a car crash in July, just months after his own accident.
Reflecting on the Portuguese forward's untimely death, Chiedozie said it "put things into perspective" and added: "It's hard to process - you are happy and blessed to be here, but you have still gone through serious injuries."
Since losing his leg, Chiedozie has had to relearn many basic tasks, including walking. Describing the process as "frustrating" he remarked: "It's strange.

"You don't think you'd have to learn stuff again - it's not easy but it's something I have to do. I can't dwell on it.
I don't know if it's mental strength, but you just have to get on with it."
In his process of moving on, he also said he intends on finding a way to play golf again.
Chiedozie added: "I haven't put too much thought into the future.
