Barcelona captain Raphinha has paid tribute to Tenerife striker Jesús de Miguel following the forward's tragic death. The 30-year-old midfielder passed away after suffering cardiac arrest during a match against FC Andorra. Raphinha, who scored twice in Barcelona's Champions League victory over Aston Villa, dedicated the win to De Miguel's family.
He said he was too affected by the news to discuss football after the match and expressed his shock and sadness at the incident. De Miguel's family has been granted privacy during this difficult time, and the Champions League anthem was not played in his memory.
