Remembering Jesús de Miguel: A Life Cut Short at Just 30

The football world is mourning the heartbreaking loss of Jesús de Miguel, who passed away at just 30 years old.

The CD Tenerife forward died on November 3, 2026, following a tragic collision during a match against FC Andorra.

What began as an ordinary football challenge turned into an unimaginable tragedy.

In added time, goalkeeper Jesús Owono rushed out to challenge for a long ball.

The collision left De Miguel seriously injured, and medical personnel immediately rushed onto the pitch.

He was taken to hospital, where doctors fought to save his life.

Sadly, despite receiving emergency treatment, he passed away the following morning.

Known affectionately as “Demi” during his time at Tenerife, De Miguel was much more than a footballer.

He was a teammate, a friend, a husband, and a loving father.

His football journey included spells with Leganés, Fuenlabrada, and several other Spanish clubs.

He worked tirelessly to reach professional football and fulfill his dreams.

His passing has left his family, teammates, and supporters devastated.

His wife and young daughter now face an unimaginable loss.

Tributes have poured in from clubs, players, and football organizations across the world.

Jesús Owono has also expressed his deep emotional pain following the incident.

This tragedy reminds us that football is ultimately about people, not trophies or results.

May Jesús de Miguel’s memory live forever.

Rest in peace, Demi.
