CD Tenerife striker Jesús de Miguel has passed away at the age of 30 after suffering a serious injury in a collision with FC Andorra goalkeeper Jesús Owono during a Spanish Segunda División match on Monday.
Club statement:
The club confirmed his death in an official statement on Tuesday, November 3, announcing that De Miguel passed away at 8:00 am local time.
"Racked with pain, with a lump in our throats and unable to believe that this is true, from CD Tenerife we communicate the tragic passing, this Tuesday, November 3, 2026, at 8:00 a.m., of Jesús de Miguel Alameda.
There are no words of comfort; there is absolutely nothing that can alleviate this feeling overflowing with sadness. We stand alongside his devastated family, alongside his loved ones, alongside all of tinerfeñismo that today weeps for this cruel outcome.
The family of Jesús de Miguel thanks each and every one of the expressions of support received, and likewise requests, from the heart, the utmost respect for their privacy in these terrible moments."
(End of the statement)
The tragic incident occurred late in Tenerife's home fixture against Andorra at the Estadio Heliodoro Rodríguez López. With the score level at 2-2, De Miguel was chasing a long ball in an attempt to launch a counterattack when Andorra goalkeeper Owono rushed out of his area to intercept it.
Owono advanced towards the centre of the pitch and collided heavily with De Miguel, with his knee appearing to strike the Tenerife forward in the upper body and head area. De Miguel immediately collapsed and remained motionless on the pitch.
Medical staff rushed to his aid, while players from both teams desperately called for assistance. The striker received treatment on the field for several minutes before being carried off on a stretcher and taken to hospital by ambulance.
The referee sent Owono off following the incident. The match was subsequently abandoned in the 108th minute, with the score still 2-2, as medical personnel attended to the injured player.
According to Spanish media reports, De Miguel suffered a cardiorespiratory arrest during the ambulance journey and was successfully resuscitated by medical staff. He was admitted to the intensive care unit at the University Hospital Nuestra Señora de Candelaria in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, where he initially remained in a critical but stable condition.
However, his condition deteriorated. In the early hours of Tuesday, Tenerife announced that the striker had suffered a neurological deterioration. Just hours later, the club confirmed the heartbreaking news of his death at 8:00 am.

BBB. K. K. BBC B. M m The keeper should be charged for recklessness and manslaughter. From his reaction, he did that on purpose.he never went for the ball. FIFA should look into such cases

Hmmmmm,so sad to hear REST WELL SIR MIGUEL. Football governing body really needs to look at this critically and if possible establish special hospital in each city to attend to these emergencies as well as assign specialised personnel to every match day to handle these situations effectively to minimise the risks of losing footballers. I can’t even control my tears knowing that what gives me joy can also take life awwww!!!!!Once again rest well
He was taken to the hospital after receiving treatment on the pitch. What more do u want? Didn’t you read this part “He was admitted to the intensive care unit at the University Hospital Nuestra Señora de Candelaria in Santa Cruz de Tenerife”??? There’s absolutely nothing football governing body can do about this because there’s always medical staffs in every football team.

That keeper is a fool. Why on earth was he in the middle of the pitch? The player’s eyes were clearly fixed on the ball, and he never saw the keeper running towards him. Otherwise, he would have been prepared for the collision. So sad. 💔 Rest on champ. 💐
