Mourning and shock in Portugal after the tragic news of the death of the wife of José Semedo, Portuguese soccer player Vitoria FC last Thursday after complications caused by an infection. Soraia and the midfielder had been together for more than 15 years and had raised a family that is now devastated by this sudden and tragic loss.
The sad news has gone around the world and has also shocked the world of football in the United Kingdom, as Semedo played for clubs as the Sheffield Wednesday o el Charlton. In addition, he is a close friend of Cristiano Ronaldo since they were both teenagers and they coincided in the quarry of Sporting de Portugal, where they both trained as footballers.
Own Semedo has written a long and beautiful message on his social networks thanking Cristiano Ronaldo for his support by posting a photo hugging him after a game. «King, one of the words that I use the most when I speak to you is THANK YOU, but it is a thank you that will never become trivial, it is a heartfelt thank you, a thank you for giving joy to all the Portuguese because with you it is possible to live experiences that even in the best dreams we could imagine, thank you for your teachings and advice, thank you for being Portuguese and always representing us with pride and determination, ”he says.
The two forged a close bond after the Manchester United star protected his friend when the Sporting youth director tried to kick Semedo out, forcing him not to. «I owe everything to Ronaldo. If it weren’t for him, I would have been kicked out of the academy and back in the neighborhood, many of my childhood friends are in jail or have been hooked »he said a while ago.
«Nothing makes me think that I would not have followed the same path. He would have ended up stealing cars like the others. I owe my sports career, my children and my wonderful life to Cristiano », whom I now like to support after tragically losing his wife Soraia, who leaves him a widower with his four children after losing his life due to complications with a infection.
