Septién donates 15,000 euros to Jesús de Miguel's family
The Cádiz president joins Fran Sol's campaign, which already tops 80,000 euros for the relatives of the Tenerife player who died after the match against Andorra.
Cádiz CF president Christian Septién has donated 15,000 euros to the charity campaign launched by Hércules forward Fran Sol to support the family of Jesús de Miguel. The CD Tenerife player died after suffering a cardiorespiratory arrest caused by a heavy blow in the match against Andorra, played on Monday at the Heliodoro Rodríguez López. According to Marca, the donation adds to the support the family has received since the news broke.
The GoFundMe fundraiser aims to cover immediate costs such as travel and the funeral, as well as the future of the player's partner. La Vanguardia reports that the total has already passed 80,000 euros, with contributions from footballers such as Pedro Porro, Marc Bartra and Álvaro Morata.
Fran Sol explained that he decided to launch the initiative after seeing so many condolence photos and messages online which, while morally supportive, did not offer anything tangible.
