FC Zurich paid tribute to their former striker, Raphael Dwamena who sadly passed away over the weekend.
The Ghana international died after suffering a cardiac attack in a league game on Saturday, November 11.
The 28-year-old lost consciousness in the 23rd minute during the league match between his side Egnatia and Partizan and was immediately taken to the hospital.
Dwamena, however, did not survive upon arrival at the hospital leading to the unfortunate incident.
His death was subsequently confirmed by the Albanian Football Association through a statement minutes after the incident.
However, in FC Zurich's away game against Lugano in the Swiss topflight, the players paid tribute to the 28-year-old.
Dawmena's death comes as a shock as he had been playing with the implanted defibrillator for quite a long time.
The promising striker featured nine times for the Black Stars and scored twice.
Raphael Dwamena completed a transfer to FC Zürich on 27 January 2017.
He made an immediate impact at his new club by scoring 12 goals in 18 matches, helping Zürich to win the 2016–17 Swiss Challenge League and gain promotion to the Swiss Super League.
On his Swiss Super League debut, Dwamena scored two goals against Grasshoppers.
