Hey Athletic Fans,

The football world is united in grief after the death of a 30-year-old striker, with two of the sport’s biggest names leading the tributes. The messages have poured in from rival clubs and across the game. It is a moving show of respect for a player gone far too soon.

Elsewhere, Lindsey Vonn is preparing for a ninth surgery and hoping it will finally let her move on from her skiing injuries.

All that and more in tonight’s edition of Essentially Athletics.

⚡Why this matters: Tributes have come from rival clubs and across the sport, and UEFA held moments of silence before its matches.
