A tragic accident has shaken Italian football and Inter Milan.
This morning in Fenegrò, near Inter’s Appiano Gentile training centre, goalkeeper Josep Martínez was involved in a fatal collision that claimed the life of an 81-year-old man in an electric wheelchair.
According to reports from Italian media, the accident occurred around 9:40 a.m. when Martínez’s vehicle struck the elderly man as he was moving along the road in his motorized wheelchair. Despite the rapid response of emergency services, the victim died at the scene due to the severity of his injuries.
The 27-year-old Spanish goalkeeper was not physically injured, but eyewitnesses say he was in deep shock following the incident.
