Jesús Owono's future uncertain after Jesús de Miguel tragedy

FC Andorra goalkeeper Jesús Owono is reportedly considering ending his professional football career after being left deeply affected by the death of striker Jesús de Miguel following a collision between the two players.

The incident has had a significant impact on Spanish football, with tributes held at several stadiums over the weekend in memory of de Miguel, who died aged 30.

Owono, a 25-year-old Equatorial Guinea international, was involved in the collision that resulted in the striker’s death. According to Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo, the goalkeeper has struggled to come to terms with the tragedy and is now questioning his future in professional football.

The report indicates that the emotional impact of the incident has been considerable, with the FC Andorra goalkeeper reportedly considering bringing his playing career to an end.

Despite receiving psychological support and guidance from members of the club’s staff, Owono is said to be finding the situation particularly difficult.

The possibility of returning to the football pitch remains a major concern for the goalkeeper, who is also reportedly worried about how supporters and the wider public might react to his return.

The circumstances surrounding the incident have placed Owono in an extremely difficult position, with the emotional consequences continuing to affect him.

Owono’s future remains uncertain

According to Mundo Deportivo, the goalkeeper has not yet made a final decision about his professional future.

His potential return to competitive football remains uncertain as he continues to receive support from those around him while dealing with the aftermath of the tragedy.

The report also states that Owono is waiting for clarification on whether any disciplinary measures could follow the incident.

For now, there has been no official announcement confirming that the 25-year-old intends to retire from football. His future at FC Andorra therefore remains unclear as he continues to deal with the situation.

The death of de Miguel has left a deep mark on those involved and the wider football community. Tributes across Spanish football over the weekend reflected the sadness surrounding the loss of the 30-year-old striker.

While attention has largely focused on remembering de Miguel, Owono’s reported struggles have also highlighted the emotional consequences of the tragedy for the goalkeeper involved in the fatal collision.

His next decision could determine whether he returns to professional football or brings his playing career to an end.
