Luis Enrique has had to give the worst news. After a few months ago he decided to unexpectedly leave his job at the helm of the men's soccer team, alluding to personal reasons and asking the media for discretion so that his true motives were not revealed, now it is he who has confirmed the sad ending. His daughter Xana, only 9 years old, was fighting a very tough battle against osteosarcoma , a type of bone cancer, which has finally ended her life.
The youngest daughter of Luis Enrique dies
Luis Enrique and his family are completely devastated. The youngest daughter of the former soccer player and former national coach died yesterday at only 9 years old due to a type of bone cancer that usually appears especially in children . Luis Enrique wanted to make his sad loss public after months asking the media for discretion to go through this trance in the strictest privacy.
The former player for Barcelona and Real Madrid put aside his job as a national coach to accompany his daughter and the rest of his family, his wife Elena Cullell and the other two children of both, Pacho and Sira. That gesture, which he did not want to give too many explanations then, now makes all the sense in the world.
This is the statement that Luis Enrique himself published yesterday on behalf of his entire family.
