Argentine football star Lionel Messi conveyed his condolences to the family of Tenerife player Jesús de Miguel, who passed away on Tuesday due to cardiac arrest. The 30-year-old collapsed after colliding with FC Andorra’s goalkeeper during a Spanish second division match on Monday. After the game, De Miguel was rushed to the hospital, where he was successfully resuscitated after five minutes of medical intervention.
However, his condition worsened, and he died early Tuesday morning. Tenerife’s club announced his death. Spanish National Police initiated a judicial investigation into the goalkeeper, a common practice when death is not caused by natural factors. De Miguel, who was married and had a one-year-old daughter, received outpourings of sympathy from fans and the football community.
Goalkeeper Owono closed his social media accounts following the incident, reportedly after being called a "murderer" by some of his followers.
