The football world is mourning the loss of Matija Sarkic, goalkeeper for Millwall and the Montenegro national team, who tragically passed away at the age of 26.
“Everyone at the club sends their love and condolences to Matija’s family and friends at this immensely sad time. The club will make no further comment at this time and asks that the privacy of Matija’s family is respected,” the club said in a statement.
It was reported that Sarkic fell ill at an apartment in Budva, Montenegro earlier this morning.
The goalkeeper had made 33 appearances for the club since he joined in August 2023.
