Uno considers retiring from football after tragedy of Jesús de Miguel's death

Goalkeeper Jesús Auno, a player for Andorra, is experiencing one of the toughest periods of his life following the death of Jesús de Miguel, which has left a deep psychological impact on him. He is struggling with feelings of guilt and difficulty accepting what has happened, to the extent that he has considered stepping away from football entirely.

According to the Spanish newspaper "Mundo Deportivo", citing Ana Cristina Maïe, the general coordinator of the Equatorial Guinea national team and close to the goalkeeper since he was fourteen, Uño is receiving psychological support from his club Andorra, which has provided specialists to help him cope with the aftermath of the incident and understand that it was an unintentional tragedy.

The club is also showing the goalkeeper videos of athletes who have gone through similar traumatic experiences, in an attempt to help him cope with what happened and gradually regain his confidence, but overcoming this phase remains extremely difficult.

Maiy said: "No matter how hard they try to convince him, he feels a deep sadness, especially because of the child who is only a year and a half old, whom Jesús de Miguel left behind, and because of his widow. He doesn't know how to deal with all of this."

It added that Ono's suffering extended to his family members, as his younger brother, who plays football in the Basque Country, faces harassment and insults from some people around him, reaching the point of being called a killer. His sister, who studies at Valencia University, is also under pressure due to the tragedy.

Maïe has revealed that the goalkeeper's mother traveled to Andorra to be by his side and support him, while the rest of the family in the Basque Country is experiencing anxiety. She pointed out that the presence of journalists outside the family home increases their psychological suffering.

It was confirmed that Uno is a religious person with strong faith, expressing hope that he realizes he is not responsible for what happened, saying: "No player steps onto the pitch thinking that they will kill another player."

Maiy concluded her appeal by respecting the privacy of the goalkeeper and his family, granting him the time, assistance, and calm needed to get through this phase, while the Andorra club continues to stand by him in its efforts to help him understand that what happened was an unintended tragic accident and to gradually regain his sporting life.
