新华网7月30日电 据英国《太阳报》报道，前英超伯明翰名将克里斯蒂安·贝尼特斯心因心脏停搏去世，年仅27岁。

绰号为“Chucho”的贝尼特斯由于严重胃痛被送往医院治疗，但到达医院后因心脏骤停突然去世。

贝尼特斯上个月刚刚以1000万英镑的身价加入卡塔尔的埃尔贾什俱乐部。

贝尼特斯曾经被热刺看中，并于2009-10赛季被租借到伯明翰踢球。

来自埃尔贾什的一份声明称，“俱乐部对球员的家人表示深切慰问。”

“在昨天与卡塔尔竞技的谢赫贾西姆杯中，贝尼特斯首次代表埃尔贾什出战，并且没有发现任何身体不适。”

此外，声明还表示，“他的突然离世对俱乐部所有成员来说都是沉痛的打击。他虽然在这里呆的时间不长，但是大家对他的高尚品德都赞赏有加。”
