By Sports Correspondent Inter Milan’s second-choice goalkeeper, Josep Martínez, was involved in a fatal road accident on Tuesday morning near Appiano Gentile, Italy. Reports indicate that the 27-year-old Spaniard accidentally struck an 81-year-old man who was in a motorised wheelchair while on his way to training at around 10 a.m. Emergency services arrived promptly, but the elderly man was pronounced dead at the scene. According to Italian media, preliminary investigations suggest the victim may have suffered a medical emergency moments before the collision. Martínez, who joined Inter Milan earlier this year, is said to be cooperating fully with the authorities. A club source revealed that he was “deeply shaken” by the incident but did not sustain any physical injuries. Police investigations into the circumstances surrounding the tragic accident are ongoing.
