The football community is mourning the loss of a talented young player, as news of Matija Sarkic's passing at the age of 26 has left everyone devastated.

Sarkic had a promising career ahead of him, having started at Anderlecht's academy and then moving to Aston Villa's youth system in 2015. He gained valuable experience through loan spells at different clubs before joining Wolverhampton Wanderers in 2020.
