Tenerife forward Jesus de Miguel, 30, died on Tuesday after an on-field collision with Andorra goalkeeper Jesus Owono during a Spanish second-division match, suffering a cardiac arrest in the ambulance while being taken to hospital. The football world has paid tribute, with the RFEF postponing domestic matches, UEFA holding a minute's silence at Champions League games, and the club announcing six days of mourning. Local police have opened an investigation, though Owono is unlikely to face criminal charges.

FIFA’s Infantino ineligible for re-election, says former governance chief

Miguel Maduro, former head of FIFA's governance committee, says Gianni Infantino is ineligible to stand for a fourth term as FIFA president in 2027, citing Article 33 of FIFA's statutes, which limits a president to three terms. FIFA's Council ruled in 2022 that Infantino's 2016–2019 spell, which completed Sepp Blatter's interrupted mandate, does not count as a term. The comments come two weeks before FIFA's deadline for presidential candidacies, with human rights group FairSquare urging member associations to declare Infantino ineligible.
