Spanish football continues to mourn the death of striker Jesus de Miguel, while Andorra goalkeeper Jesus Ono is considering whether to continue playing as he awaits the disciplinary punishment linked to the incident.
De Miguel died aged 30, prompting tributes across Spanish football over the weekend. Matches from La Liga to amateur competitions began with a minute’s silence in memory of the forward, reflecting the widespread impact of his death.
According to Fut Mercato, Ono, 25, is experiencing a severe psychological crisis and has started to question his future in the game. The report says he is struggling to imagine returning to football under the circumstances surrounding the incident and is considering ending his playing career.
The Andorra goalkeeper is spending most of his time at home with his family. He is receiving support from mental-health professionals, as well as members of his club’s coaching and administrative staff, who are helping him through what has been described as an extremely difficult period.
The report adds that the aftermath has had a profound effect on Ono’s state of mind. He is particularly concerned about returning to matches and the hostile reaction he could face from supporters when he next plays.
Ono remains due to serve the punishment imposed on him, although the report does not specify its length or when it will begin. His uncertainty over a return comes as Spanish football continues to hold tributes for De Miguel across different divisions and competitions.
The upcoming fixture information includes CD Badajoz in the Copa del Rey on 10 November 2026. It also lists Tenerife and Almeria in the Segunda Division on 14 November 2026, with Andorra appearing in the same fixture information.
The tributes to De Miguel have extended well beyond the top levels of Spanish football, turning matches throughout the country into occasions to remember him. The scenes have underlined the depth of feeling following his death and the continuing consequences of the tragedy for those involved.
