Former Rayo Vallecano and Nigeria goalkeeper Wilfred Agbonavbare has passed away.
The 48 year-old lost his life to cancer and passed away yesterday in Madrid.
Rayo Vallecano did their very best for Wilfred's children to fly from Nigeria to see their father before he died. To this end, half of the 21,000 raised for doña Carmen, the elderly lady who was to be evicted from her home in Vallecas and who insisted that she did not need so much money, was used.
The club did all it could to get the ex-keeper's three children over from Nigeria to see their father for the last time, but all the paperwork and bureaucratic steps to be taken were not completed in time and tragically, Wilfred died before their arrival.
