    He was an absolute beast on the pitch. A very likeable forward that many a premierleague team would of liked to wear their shirt. Very sad news

    27? Shocking. Due to complications with appendicitis. RIP Chucho.

    It was a heart attack wasn't it?

    He played yesterday and was fine, he just collapsed later.

    RIP

    BBC Sport says the cause of death is unclear.

    RIP - no age at all

    I just searched and it said appendicitis that lead to peritonitis and complications with respiratory system. Either way, shouldn't be passing away at 27.

    He seems to have been a really likeable player.

    That is no age. He was a great player from what I have seen.

    went to hospital after the game with appenticitis, which then escalated into repiratory problems (heart attack) awful to hear, so sad.

    RIP Chucho

    If I remember rightly, didn't he play against us for Birmingham in 2009/10?

    R.I.P Chucho - only last week Spurs and Swansea were interested in him! Such a tragic end for a very talented footballer

    Sad loss, I'd have loved to have him in my team. RIP Chucho.

    What happens to the £10m that his team paid for him? Do they get any of it back or is it just hard luck?
