Inter Milan goalkeeper Josep Martinez was involved in a car accident which left an 81-year-old man dead, according to reports in Italy.

The incident occurred on Tuesday morning in Fenegro as the Spaniard was driving to training shortly before 10am.

Reports suggest that the elderly man’s motorised wheelchair was traveling in the same direction as the car before veering into the path of Martinez, possibly due to him suffering a medical emergency.

The goalkeeper reportedly attempted to administer first aid and an ambulance and other emergency services arrived but the man was confirmed dead at the scene.

Martinez was not harmed physically in the incident but is reportedly badly shaken.
