Football legend Sinisa Mihajlovic passes away

Legendary footballer Sinisa Mihajlovic has sadly passed away at the age of 53 after a battle with cancer.

The former AC Milan and Serbia head coach had been fighting leukemia but has sadly lost his fight as his death was confirmed on Friday. Mihajlovic was originally diagnosed with a particularly severe form of the disease in 2019 and underwent three cycles of chemotherapy and a bone marrow transplant in an effort to fight it. Mihajlovic will go down as a legendary figure in Italian football having represented the likes of Roman, Lazio Roma, Sampdoria and Inter Milan - winning two Serie A titles and four Coppa Italias in the process. He also went on to add the UEFA Super Cup and UEFA Cup Winners' Cup to his collection in Italy.
