The midfielder went on to sign for English Premiershi­p Club Brentford before signing for United and is the first known top-flight footballer, who was fitted with the matchbox-sized device, which did not allow him to use in Italy and is implanted in those thought to be at risk of cardiac arrest at some point in the future.

Meanwhile, Moneni Pirates team Manager Twoman Masuku, said it was true that Yeki, who is their player, had failed the medical test but could not reveal the main cause behind the sad incident. “Ths is still shocking news to the whole Pirates family and we will conduct further tests on the player,” he lamented.

Unione Sportiva Città di Pontedera formerly Unione Sportiva Pontedera 1912, is an Italian associatio­n football club located in Pontedera, Tuscany. It currently plays in Serie C, the third-tier of Italian football.

The devastatin­g developmen­ts received by the exciting player leaves a big question if he would still be

allowed to play in the MTN Premier League after the Papi Faty incident, which shocked the football fraternity.

Yeki’s amazing talent was spotted by Mamelodi Sundown’s scout Esrom Nyandoro during the Council of Southern Africa Football Associatio­n (COSAFA) Youth Championsh­ips,which were staged in the country last year in October. Meanwhile, Suarez, who is still in Italy, is a former Mhlatane High School team player. The Moneni Pirates player could not be drawn for comment after his cellphone rang unanswered when called yesterday.
