The CD Tenerife footballer Jesús de Miguel Alameda has passed away this Tuesday morning. This was communicated by the club in a statement released on social media, where it explained that the forward died around 8:00 AM.
In the early hours of this Wednesday, the club had announced that the footballer's medical situation had worsened neurologically.
The young man was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit of the Nuestra Señora de Candelaria University Hospital, where he was transferred after colliding with the opposing team's goalkeeper.
The incident occurred in a Second Division match between CD Tenerife and FC Andorra. The game, which was suspended after the accident, was being played at the Estadio Heliodoro Rodríguez López.
"Heartbroken, with a lump in our throats and unable to believe this is true," the team laments. "There are no words of comfort, there is absolutely nothing that can alleviate this feeling full of sadness. We stand with his devastated family, with his loved ones, with all of Tenerife who today mourns this cruel outcome."
The forward's family has thanked "each and every one of the expressions of support received, and also requests, from the heart, maximum respect for their privacy, in these terrible moments."
