Sheffield United star Rhian Brewster's cousin, News Today 17, suddenly collapsed and died after 'an innocuous tackle' during a football match on Wednesday, his manager has revealed.
Brewster poignantly pointed to the sky after scoring last night in tribute to the teenager's tragic death just hours before.
Kaylen Dennis, an under-23 player for Walthamstow Football Club from north London, passed away during a match at Barnet College on Wednesday afternoon.
The teenager - who some have described as having 'unbelievable talent' - was playing a scheduled college game shortly after 12pm when he went down on a tackle and stopped breathing.
Speaking to MailOnline, Jason Geraghty, manager of Walthamstow FC U-23s and a former professional who played for West Ham, said Kaylen was 'like my own son' and 'an exceptional young man.
