A former Manchester City youth player who took his own life after he was released felt the club had badly let him down, an inquest heard on Monday.
Jeremy Wisten, 18, a thriving City youth team player before a serious knee ligament injury cut short his progress, learned in June 2019 that he would be released within six months. After a five-year career with them, he was told he must find a new club.
The teenager’s father, Manila, said his son felt City did not give him the help he needed to continue his career.
