The FA have released a statement following the tragic death of former Arsenal academy star Billy Vigar after he suffered a 'significant brain injury' during a match.
Vigar was placed in an induced coma having suffered the injury while playing for Chichester City in a match at Wingate and Finchley in the Isthmian League Premier Division last Saturday.
Reports suggested Vigar collided with a pitchside concrete wall while trying to keep the ball in play, with the match subsequently abandoned.
After being placed in a coma, Vigar was operated on by doctors in a desperate bid to save his life on Tuesday, but 'the injury proved too much for him', his devastated family said.
