Quevin Castro, a former West Bromwich Albion midfielder, dies at the age of 25 after collapsing during a friendly match in Portugal. Multiple outlets report that the incident occurs while he is playing in a game abroad, with tributes following his death.
The reports say Castro represents Real Sport Clube (Real SC) in a pre-season or friendly fixture against another club, with one outlet describing the opponent as a third-tier Portuguese side. The Athletic, citing an official statement from the Lisbon Football Association, says Castro “passed away this morning during the pre-season friendly.”
Coverage broadly agrees on the central timeline: Castro collapses on the pitch during the match and dies at 25. Some articles include biographical details, such as his upbringing in Thetford, while others focus more on the former West Brom connection and club reaction. No source cited here provides a specific cause of death.
