Addis Ababa, March 27, 2024 (FBC) – Ethiopia National Team and Bahir Dar City Football Club midfielder Alelign Azene has tragically passed away in his hometown of Arba Minch, the club confirmed earlier today.
Although the cause of his death was not disclosed yet, Bahir Dar City FC said Alelign took some time off from the club to recover from an undisclosed injury he sustained recently.
Alelign started his football career at his hometown club, Arba Minch City Football Club, before his transfer to Bahir Dar City FC two years ago where he helped the Waves of Tana finish to a historic second place finish in 2022/23 Ethiopian Premier League season.
He has improved himself from time to time to become one of the very few best midfielders in the country right now. He also represented the national team on several occasions.
Fana Broadcasting Corporate expresses its sadness at the death of the player and would like to offer its condolences to his family and fans as well as the entire football family.
