John Aene died at the age of 52

Ene suffered a heart attack in his sleep and was found lifeless by his son this morning.

“Doctors said it was a heart attack in my sleep. His son found him. We found out this morning. A teammate went to pick up John Ene’s son at school and that’s how he found out what happened.

As far as is known, he slept alone in the room. In the morning, the son heard the alarm clock and did not understand why John did not stop it. He went in and saw him like that. His wife also arrived, an ambulance was called, but the doctors had nothing else to do.

He arrived at the stadium in the evening, around 8:30 p.m. He said hello, but said he wasn’t coming down, that he wasn’t feeling well. I know he was undergoing heart treatment,” GSP quoted someone close to John Ene as saying.

It is difficult for me to say this, my dear friend. May God rest in peace” – Ionut Teodorovgeneral manager of FC Olympico Real Dragomirești.
