According to a report by daily post Nigeria on Thursday November 5, 2026, A preliminary autopsy has found that Tenerife striker Jesús de Miguel died from accidental chest trauma following a collision with FC Andorra goalkeeper Jesús Owono during Monday’s match. He was 30.

The findings offer an initial explanation for the player’s death, but the investigation is not yet complete.

Further forensic tests are pending, and police are examining both the circumstances of the on-field collision and the emergency medical response that followed. No final conclusions have been reported.

The incident has brought renewed attention to the risks players face during competitive matches, particularly when a collision happens at speed.

However, the precise sequence of events and the medical care provided afterward remain matters for investigators to establish.

Until the additional tests are completed, the preliminary autopsy findings should not be treated as the final account.

De Miguel’s funeral is scheduled to take place today in Navahermosa, Spain, where family, friends, teammates and members of the local community are expected to remember him. His death has prompted grief among those who knew him and followed his career.

For now, the investigation continues as authorities gather evidence and await the outstanding forensic results.

Those findings may help clarify the circumstances surrounding the fatal incident and provide a fuller account of what happened.
