Christian Benitez - Died aged 27

[Crispy]

In a car crash apprently, madness.

Only 27, he was banging them in for fun at America too..

No more Benitez abuse on Ultimate team  

Edit:

El Jaish, who signed Benitez on 6 July, confirmed the news but the official cause of his death is unclear.

Their statement said: "The club would like to offer its sincere condolences to the family of the player.

"Benitez had recently joined the club from Club America for three seasons. The player participated for the first time with the team during yesterday's match against Qatar Sports Club in the Sheikh Jassem Cup without complaining of any health problems.

"His sudden departure is a big shock for each member of the technical and administrative staff. He was a player that over the short period he was here was regarded for his high moral character."

I've seen in one place that it's a car crash, and in another that it's a complication arising from appendicitis... strange.

Will always remember him for his 90th minute winner in the FA Cup final for me (as West Ham) against City in the FA cup final on last years FM. RIP.

Just seen this when logged into my webmail via AOL. Can't believe he was only 27. Young football players seem to be suffering all sorts of cardiac problems.

Complication from appendicitis being that he crashed his car?

Whatever it was its no age to die.
