Emiliano Sala


DBasia.news –  The death of Emiliano Sala is still a mystery that has still been discussed to this date. From the latest news quoted from the Mirror, Cardiff City offered Sala a commercial flight.

Cardiff City’s new player Emiliano Sala was confirmed dead in a plane crash on January 21, 2019. Authorities released that Sala’s death was caused by injuries to the head and chest.

Emiliano Sala boarded the Piper Malibu plane piloted by David Ibbotson on the way from Nantes to Cardiff on January 21. The aircraft was reported to have lost contact just one hour after taking off.

After the search which was stopped has now been resumed, the search team announced that they had found a body inside the plane under the sea on Wednesday (6/2). Afterwards, the body was taken to the Portland Port for identification.

After some time, the police finally issued a statement. “The body that was brought to Portland Port on Thursday 7 February has been officially identified by HM Coroner for Dorset as the professional footballer, Emiliano Sala,” said police statements.

Although it was confirmed that Emiliano Sala had died in the accident, there was another debate after agent Willie McKay claimed Cardiff had let Sala arrange his own flight.

“He was left in a hotel more or less to organize his own trip. Nobody in Cardiff did anything. It was a shame for Cardiff,” McKay said.

“They bought a 15 million pounds player and then left him in a hotel alone to use computers looking for flights. I think Cardiff disappointed themselves. The way they acted so far, they have become a disgrace,” McKay said.

However, Cardiff immediately denied the allegations. Cardiff explained that they had offered Sala to fly on a commercial plane.

The Cardiff statement was supported by a leaked Whatsapp conversations that showed Sala rejecting the offer. Because, the player had agreed to go with a plane that McKay had ordered.

Until now, the pilot that flew Emiliano Sala’s aircraft had not been found. Latest news have stated that the family is willing if the search must stopped.
