Athletico Madrid’s Little Messi Dead At 14

Athletico Madrid’s   Little Messi  Christian Minchola Sanchez has died. The 14-years-old passed away yesterday.


The club took to Twitter to announce his dead alongside his photo saying “Atlético de Madrid is mourning the passing of our U14 player Christian Minchola.




“We join in the grief of his family, teammates and friends. May he rest in peace.”



The Peruvian who was a great base for the Spanish club has been there since 2013 and was very active in the children’s category C, scoring over 50 goals for the club’s youth team.



The youngster was considered one of the greatest future players for both the Spanish side and his country.
The club’s president also took to social media on Saturday to express his on Christian’s dead.




He shared: “We are shocked by the sad news of the death of our player and deeply regret this loss.”



He assured the deceased family of the club’s solidarity during this period and support in his funeral.



“Athletico de Madrid and the entire Atlético family will be side by side with Christian’s family and friends in these moments of immense pain.”


The cause of his death is yet to be known but as we know Spain is currently one of the epic centres of the coronavirus.


 What we do know is that both Madrid and Peru as well as football, in general, have lost a great player.


We wish to extend our condolences to the Minchola family and Athletico Madrid.
