Southend are going to do a minute's applause for him at their next game. Seems he had a heart attack in 2019 and wasn't the same after that.

Full background summarised here which I wasn’t aware of, and which is just horrific to read. I hope his family can take some solace at him being out of suffering and at peace after such a traumatic period for both him and them.
No one should drop dead at that age
RIP

That is so sad. I read that he suffered a cardiac arrest in 2019, when teaching at a special needs school, following which he lived in a care home. A further twist of fate is that his school and England Youth mate was Fabrice Muamba.
