Spanish Footballer Nico Hidalgo Dies at 32 After Battle With Cancer
Spanish footballer Nico Hidalgo has passed away at the age of 32 after a long battle with lung cancer. His former clubs confirmed the heartbreaking news on Saturday.
Hidalgo started his football journey at Motril, making his senior debut in 2010 before joining Granada B in 2012. In 2014, he signed with Juventus but never featured for the first team, leading to a loan move back to Granada.
His career saw him play for Cádiz, initially on loan before making the move permanent in 2017. He later played for Racing Santander and Extremadura before retiring in 2022, a year after being diagnosed with cancer.
Granada paid tribute to him, saying, “With Nico’s departure, we not only lose a talented footballer but also a remarkable person. The love from his teammates, coaches, staff, and fans will always remain.”
Cádiz also shared a heartfelt message: “We will never forget your smile and joy. Your fight will always inspire us. Rest in peace.”
Football legend Paul Merson praises Mikel Arteta on his win this season and shares good luck to him in the Champions League against Paris Saint-Germain.
He praised the manager, saying that Arteta really pushed the club to the best and the win is well deserved.
“Congratulations to Arsenal once again. It is a well-deserved win after 22 years. We can’t wait to see the 30th of May and see if it’s a double win.”
Luis Enrique, manager of Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), praised Arsenal F.C. and called them the best team in the world after their win in the Premier League.
He shared: “I believe they deserve to win the league — they have had an outstanding season.
“We have already faced this Arsenal team, so we are aware of their capabilities.
“Without the ball, they are the best team in the world, and with it, they can score frequently. This creates a remarkable combination for them.”
Nigerian footballer Victor Osimhen spoke about his childhood days and the difficult experiences he faced growing up.
He revealed that his mother was the breadwinner of the family and that her death deeply affected them.
“My mom was the breadwinner of the family, but she and my dad never had issues because of it.”
He shared that when his mother passed away, they not only missed her emotionally but also struggled financially without her support.
Fans related to his story and applauded how he has now risen to greatness.
