Trinidad & Tobago defender Akeem Adams dies after suffering stroke in Hungary

Trinidad and Tobago defender Akeem Adams is dead following a stroke in hospital on Monday, his Hungarian club Ferencvaros said in a statement.

Adams has undergone several operations since having a heart attack after a match in September and his condition turned critical over the weekend, Ferencvaros said on their website (www.fradi.hu).

Adams was taken to a Budapest hospital in September after he felt dizzy following Ferencvaros’s 3-1 win over arch-rivals Ujpest.

He played six matches for the 26-times Hungarian champions this season and won eight international caps for Trinidad and Tobago.

Adams had only joined Ferencvaros in August, having previously played for W Connection, United Petrotin and Central in his homeland.

The 22 year old played for his country in the under-17 World Cup in 2007, the under-20 World Cup in 2009 and the qualifying tournament for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
