Fans of football have been dealt another loss after Gabon international Moise Brou Apanga died from Cardiac Arrest. It is reported that the player suffered the heart attack during a training session with his club Football Canon 105 de Libreville and died on Wednesday. He was 35. Apanga turned out for a lot of clubs which include Brest, Perugia, Brescia, and other native clubs in his home country.
The Ivorian-born defender's death was felt throughout Gabon with former Gabon coach Alain Giresse seeming to take it the hardest. “I have collapsed,” former Gabon coach Alain Giresse, who handed Brou Apanga his international debut in 2007, told L’Equipe. “I’m destroyed. “I made him get his naturalisation because he was Ivorian,” the current Mali boss continued. “He was playing in the country and I helped him join Brest.” Brou Apanga made 33 appearances for the Panthers, and represented the Central Africans at the 2010 Nations Cup and the 2012 event on home soil.
