Cercle goalkeeper Miguel Van Damme (28) passed away
After more than five years of battling leukemia, he has lost the unequal battle. His wife Kyana announced this on Instagram this morning. “Our dearest darling, daddy left for his last match last night, a match that can no longer be won. You left us very slowly, yet you did it again in your own way: very strong. You fought like a lion. We are so grateful for who you were,” it sounds.
Cercle Brugge in deep mourning
“Words are not enough to describe what we feel, even though we knew that things had not gone well for a while. Today is an extremely difficult day in the almost 123-year history of Cercle Brugge. Our thoughts go first to z a wife Kyana, his daughter Camille, Miguel’s parents, his sister Francesca but also to his many friends and family.”
“Miguel, your perseverance and strength to go for it (again), setback after setback, was admirable. You are an example of positivism, perseverance and fighting spirit. A source of inspiration for everyone who fights. Forever in our green-black heart , #16.”
