Template:Spanish name 2 Daniel Jarque González (January 1, 1983 – August 8, 2009) was a Spanish footballer, who played as a central defender.

Jarque played his entire career with RCD Espanyol, and was named team captain one month before his death from a heart attack, at the age of 26.[1]

Football career

Born in Barcelona, Spain, and a product of local RCD Espanyol's youth system, Jarque made his first division debut with his hometown club on October 20, 2002, in a match against Recreativo de Huelva during 2002–03[2] and, after 15 appearances in two seasons, went on to become a defensive mainstay for a side that won the 2006 Spanish Cup.

In 2006–07, after renewing his contract until 2009,[3] Jarque appeared in 14 UEFA Cup contests, as Espanyol reached the final, lost on penalties to Sevilla FC. In the previous league season, he contributed with four league goals, as Espanyol finished 15th.

At the start of 2009–10, Jarque relieved Raúl Tamudo of his captain duties.[4]

Death

According to several online Spanish newspapers, Jarque was found dead during Espanyol's pre-season, done in Coverciano, Florence, Italy. He was on the phone with his girlfriend in the team hotel when he suffered a heart attack.

Some other news sources explain that Jarque's girlfriend (who was seven months into her pregnancy)[5] reported his absence to his roommate, Ferran Corominas.[1][6]

On July 11, 2010, during the 2010 FIFA World Cup Final, close friend Andrés Iniesta celebrated his 116th minute winning goal (the only goal of the game) by removing his jersey to reveal an undershirt with the sentence "Dani Jarque siempre con nosotros" which means "Dani Jarque, always with us.". [7]
