CD Tenerife striker Jesús de Miguel saw his neurological condition deteriorate on Tuesday, two days after a violent collision with the FC Andorra goalkeeper.
The Spanish striker of CD Tenerife, Jesús de Miguel, saw his neurological condition deteriorate this Tuesday, his club announced in an official statement. The 23-year-old player had been the victim of a violent collision with the FC Andorra goalkeeper on Monday during a match that ended in a general brawl on the pitch.
The player had already been taken to hospital on Monday evening following this spectacular collision. The first hours following the accident had shown a positive evolution of his health condition. However, the deterioration noted on Tuesday considerably worries the medical staff and the club's officials.
FC Andorra, a club currently playing in the Spanish second division, has not yet commented on this dramatic situation. Images of the incident have circulated on social media, showing the intensity of the collision between the Andorran goalkeeper and the opposing striker.
CD Tenerife has indicated that it is closely monitoring the evolution of its player's health condition and keeping his family informed at every moment. The club has also thanked supporters for their support and respect for the player's privacy during these difficult times.
This case once again raises the question of player safety on the pitch, particularly concerning dangerous challenges during duels. Spanish football authorities will certainly be called upon to examine this incident at their next disciplinary meeting.
