\u201cBroken in pain, with a knot in the throat and unable to believe this is true, from the CD Tenerife we communicate the tragic death, this Tuesday, November 3, 2026, at 8:00 hours, of Jesus de Miguel Alameda,\u201d the statement read.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are no words of comfort; there is absolutely nothing to mitigate this feeling of sorrow. We are together with his heartbroken family, together with his loved ones, together with all the Tinerfenism that today cries for this cruel outcome,\u201d it added.<\/p>\n

The club also said De Miguel\u2019s family appreciated the messages of support received since the incident but appealed for respect for their privacy during the period of mourning.\n<\/p>\n
