after his team lost 2-1 in a home defeat during
an Algerian league game.
Albert and his team mates were leaving the field
at the end of a match between his club JS

His club, JS Kabylie, published a statement
yesterday on its website saying his death will be
investigated.
‘The Ministry of Interior and Local
Government, speaking through minister
Tayeb Belaiz, has given an instruction to
open an investigation into the circumstances
surrounding the death of Albert Ebosse.”
The statement read
Kabylie captain Ali Rial told reporters that Albert
died in his arms as he accompanied him to the
hospital in the ambulance.
“I’m depressed, it’s real drama and I do not
know if I’ll get over it. He died in my arms, I
still cannot believe we have lost him
forever. He was a good man, God rest his
soul.”
So sad! May his soul rest in peace…
