Investigators have confirmed that the body of Emiliano Sala has been recovered from the wreckage of his plane that went missing last month.
A body was pulled from the aircraft, which was found on the bottom of the ocean north of Guernsey, earlier this week.
The plane, which was carrying Sala and pilot David Ibbotson, disappeared off the radar around 8:30pm on January 21, as the Cardiff City striker was travelling from Nantes to the Welsh capital.
The investigation to find the plane was initially called off after three days, but Sala’s family raised the funds to keep the search alive, with thanks to donations from international football community.
A private search team announced that they had found the wreckage of the plane at the bottom of the English channel on February 4.
