A PROMISING teen footballer has died on the pitch during a match – with his Sheffield United star cousin paying tribute.
Kaylen Dennis, 17, died during a Walthamstow Football Club match yesterday.
The semi-pro club said: “We are devastated to learn of the passing away of one of our U23 players, Kaylen Dennis during a game.
“We send our deepest condolences to his family, friends, teammates and everyone that knew him.”
Last night Kaylen’s cousin and Sheffield United player Rhian Brewster pointed his right finger up to the sky in a moving gesture mid-game.
He made the gesture after netting the first goal against Millwall at The Den during a Championship match.
