Countless numbers of healthy young athletes have died of heart attacks in recent years.
Back in June, Matija Sarkic, a goalkeeper who played for Millwall and the Montenegro national team, collapsed at his apartment in Budva and was pronounced dead shortly after. He was just 26.
In December 2021, four young players died in the space of a week, all after suffering unexplained heart attacks.
Among them were the Croatian star Marin Cacic, Oman international player Mukhaled Al-Raqadi, Egyptian goalkeeper Ahmed Amin, and the Algerian Sofiane Loukar.
