Spanish football coach Francisco Garcia dies from coronavirus


(Web Desk) - A 21-year-old Spanish football coach has died from coronavirus, having been suffering from a form of leukaemia.

Francisco Garcia had a pre-existing health condition that resulted in him being more vulnerable to the virus than usual for an individual of his age, and Malaga-based club Atletico Portada Alta confirmed the death of the junior team coach on Monday.

Portada Alta president Pepe Bueno said: "Francisco was a great guy and a very talented coach. We are all still shocked.”
