The most recent death is an Algerian footballer, Sofiane Loukar, who suffered a heart attack and died after colliding with his goalkeeper in a second division match in Oran on Saturday, Reuters reported.
More from Reuters:
The APS agency said 28-year-old Loukar, from Mouloudia Saida, was hurt after running into his goalkeeper mid-way through the first half of their Ligue 2 clash at ASM Oran.
He resumed playing after treatment but then collapsed some 10 minutes later, the agency reported.
Loukar was rushed to hospital but died of a heart attack on his way, APS said. When news of his death was broken to the two teams, they abandoned the match.

So it should come as no surprise...
/mordant sarcasm
Regards,
An average of 3 pro (FIFA) soccer players died per week in the years before COVID-19 (during games/practice/training).
(About 150 per year):

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33361135/
Add Drago to the branch covidians list.
Probably had a bunch of co-morbidities like being out of shape...stuff like that.
/s
Sadly they will be added to this list. RIP

You do understand that there have been more than just these four?
These four are on top of and including multiple prior “died unexpectedly”?
No, no, no—your link says nothing of 150 players in a pro league dying in a year! It says 150 globally—of those playing the world’s most commonly played sport. FIFA is just one of the sponsors of the database.
That is absolutely, completely, very different!
And another article there says this, 13 year timeline:
“Soccer is the most popular sport in the world, with over 200 million active players. Sudden cardiac death (SCD) represents the most striking as well as the most common cause of death in the soccer field. Underlying cardiovascular pathologies predispose to life threatening ventricular arrhythmias and SCD in soccer players. Up to thousands to hundred thousands players might have an underlying condition that predisposes them for SCD. After several media striking SCD events in soccer players the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) has made screening recommendations that are more thorough than the ones recommended for the American Heart Association and the European Society of Cardiology. We present a retrospective search through Internet databases that resulted in 54 soccer players with SCD events from 2000 until 2013.”
https://sponet.fi/Record/4035550
So in 13 years there were only 54 out of 200 million yearly active players...
Good catch. I am wondering how many had heart issues but were successfully resuscitated or hospitalized and did not die to become a statistic.
The current situation is clearly on orders of magnitude in difference.
And we are to just trust without question. This thing is like going to a tire shop to have a tire repaired and they stab and ruin the other three while claiming to fix the one.
Then if you want young (pediatric) “out-of-hospital cardiac arrests” (OHCA) in the USA than that number is 23,500 per year. (2016 pre-COVID)
https://www.resuscitationjournal.com/article/S0300-9572(20)30160-X/fulltext
Soccer players having heart attacks on the field is a leading indicator of much wider heart damage from the mRNA spike protein injections.
Unlike American football and basketball players, soccer players do not get rotated in and out when they are winded. They run non-stop for 45+45 minutes.
Do you not know you can’t go against the narrative? You’ll be cancelled.
Yeah, and I am not even vaxxed! ;-)
Just providing some perspective...people die from undetected heart conditions every day, and with 7,800 deaths per day in the USA with 75% of the pop. vaxxed we have 5,700 “people that have been vaxxed” deaths per day!! 5,700 chances per day for “finger-pointing” that brings in click ad revenue....”follow the $$”.
Now you’re trying to compare apples to street signs.
Stop contorting yourself trying to disprove the obvious!
“An average of 3 pro (FIFA) soccer players died per week in the years before COVID-19 (during games/practice/training).”
Why let the facts get in the way of hysteria and irrational thought. Perhaps the covid jab was the cause or contributing cause of death of the four soccer players. But I don’t see how anyone can draw that conclusion without knowing the medical history of each of the four players, including whether they previously had covid or if they even received the jab. Indeed, post-covid cardiac issues are apparently a lingering effect of the virus:

In addition, from the best that I can determine, the FIFA does not require pro soccer players to get vaccinated and by some reports, for example, only seven of the twenty premier league teams in the UK have a 50% vaccination rate or higher:

You do understand that there have been more than just these four this year?
Just asking.
