Great grief for Real Madrid, the Spanish football record champion. Ex-President Lorenzo Sanz died of his coronavirus infection at the age of 76. His son Lorenzo Sanz Jr. confirmed this to several Spanish media. Sanz, who has had severe kidney disease for a long time, was tested positive for Covid-19 a few days ago and was in the intensive care unit of the Jiménez Diaz clinic in Madrid.
His son's message said: "He was one of the best, bravest, and hard-working people I was allowed to meet." Sanz's work in the real estate industry led to a considerable fortune in his professional life. Born in Madrid, Real Madrid headed Real Madrid from 1995 to 2000, during which time he won the UEFA Champions League with his then coach Jupp Heynckes (74).
