Cardiff City defender Sol Bamba says some of his teammates are scared to fly following the disappearance of Emiliano Sala.

The Argentine became the club's record signing before a plane he was aboard, along with pilot David Ibbotson, disappeared off the coast of Guernsey.

Reflecting on the heartbreaking situation, Bamba told BBC Sport: "It is very difficult to even describe how the players are feeling.

"It is a very unusual situation, a big tragedy. We have all been affected by it, the lads, the city, the whole club.

"We have had some help. We travel by plane and some of the lads have been thinking 'I don't want to go on it anymore.'

"It was that deep, the gaffer has been good and the club have been good in terms of bringing someone in to talk to if we need to.

"And I think some of the lads do, they need to get it out. So I think it was good thinking from the club and the gaffer and hopefully in the weeks to come we are going to feel better."
