Former Juventus Footballer Hidalgo Passes Away at 32
Sad news has arrived from Spain. On the first day of spring, former Juventus winger Nico Hidalgo passed away.
Details: The Spanish player died at the age of 32. The cause of death was lung cancer, which Hidalgo had been battling for the past four years. It was this illness that led to the end of his career in January 2022. The news of his death was announced by one of Hidalgo's former clubs – Cadiz.
Quote: “Nico Hidalgo has left us. We will never forget your smile and joy. Your fight is our example. Rest in peace.”
Reminder: Hidalgo transferred to Juventus from Granada in 2014, but he never played for the Turin club, spending time on loan at Granada and Cadiz. After his stint with the "Bianconeri," he returned to Spain, where he represented Cadiz, Racing Santander, and Extremadura.
