Robert Enke, goalkeeper for Germany and Hannover 96, has died after being hit by a train.
Enke played 8 times for his country and also for Benfica, Barcelona and Borussia Moenchengladbach. National team coach Joachim Loew has said that Enke could have had the number one jersey at next year’s World Cup finals in South Africa.
Enke’s daughter, Lara, died in 2006 of a rare heart condition when she was 2 and he now leaves behind his wife, Teresa, and the eight-month-old daughter the couple just adopted in early 2009.
So tragic!
Our thoughts are with his family and loved ones.
