Keeper Owono 'would never intentionally hurt anyone'

Andorra goalkeeper Jesus Owono "would never intentionally hurt anyone" and has been "deeply affected" by the death of Tenerife forward Jesus de Miguel, his team-mate said on Wednesday.

Tenerife player De Miguel, 30, died after suffering a serious injury in a collision with Owono during a Spanish second-division match on Monday.

The world of football has paid tribute to De Miguel, a father-of-one who joined Tenerife in summer 2025, with a minute's silence being held at all European games this week.

Writing on social media, Andorra centre-back Lautaro Spatz said Owono was devastated.

He paid tribute to De Miguel but added: "I also want to say a few words about my team-mate, goalkeeper and friend, who is deeply affected by what has happened.
