Kylian Mbappé, the Real Madrid star, has paid tribute to Tenerife player Jesús de Miguel, who died today, Tuesday, at the age of 30.

Tenerife announced the news at eight o'clock this Tuesday morning, plunging the club, its fans and the wider football family into deep mourning.

Their message began: "We are shattered by the depth of the pain, our tongues are tied by the shock, and we cannot believe that this is real."
