The unprecedented rise in deaths from cardiac arrest in international football continues with the deaths of three more players this week. Croatian footballer Marin Cacic, Oman international player Mukhaled Al-Raqadi and Egyptian goalkeeper Ahmed Amin have all passed away this week.
Almost every professional team in the world has mandated that their footballers take the vaccine. The timing of these sudden deaths makes the vaccine the prime suspect here.
In an average year, about 9 football players die from cardiac arrest. This year there have been at least 18 deaths, including the three this week, a 100% increase.
There have already been multiple calls for an investigation with ex-England international player Matt Le Tissier saying that he had “never once” seen a player with heart problems in his 17-year career.
Le Tissier believes the COVID-19 vaccines are responsible and it seems to have sparked the emergence of a dedicated group of about a hundred players now saying they will not get the vaccine according to the Dailymail.
