The football world began to pay its respects after the confirmation of Sala's death.

"Your soul in my soul, it will shine forever, thus illuminating the time of my existence. I love you, tito, "wrote his sister.

The plane, which was carrying Sala and pilot David Ibbotson, disappeared from the radar around 8:30 pm on January 21st.

Defender Sol Bamba was the first Cardiff player to tweet after the announcement of the news.
