The Spanish club commits to financially supporting the 16-month-old child of the goalkeeper who tragically passed away on November 3rd.
The passing of Jesús de Miguel leaves an immense void in Spanish football. The goalkeeper for CD Tenerife, aged just 30, died on November 3rd, the day after a fatal collision occurred during a match against Andorra. Behind this tragedy lies a 16-month-old girl left fatherless.
Faced with this dramatic situation, CD Tenerife has taken responsibility. The club's president announced that the institution would financially support the deceased goalkeeper's daughter until she reaches adulthood. A powerful gesture that illustrates the club's attachment to its player and his family.
Solidarity was not limited to the club's inner circle. A crowdfunding campaign launched by Jesús de Miguel's close associates quickly reached and exceeded 200,000 euros. This show of support reflects the emotion felt throughout the football community in the face of this indescribable loss.
In total, according to information reported by The Athletic, the goalkeeper's close family is expected to receive nearly 400,000 euros in compensation. A significant portion of this sum, namely 360,000 euros, will be paid directly to the family. This financial assistance should help ensure a stable future for the young girl.
This mobilization reminds us that football, beyond the sporting stakes, remains a human sport where values of solidarity and compassion retain all their meaning.
