Very sad.
Swansea City have paid tribute to former employee Nick Eames who has passed away.
Nick previously worked in the club's kit department, alongside wife Sue and son Michael.
Sue left the club after 26 years' service last year, while Michael regularly posts on social media about his role at the club and arranges matchworn shirt giveaways for supporters.
In a statement, Swansea said: "Everyone at Swansea City would like to send their deepest condolences to the Eames family following the passing of Nick Eames. Nick formerly worked at the club within the kit department alongside his wife Sue and their son Mike. Rest in peace, Nick."
Michael posted a tribute on his own Instagram page. It reads: "We will love you forever Dad. The greatest ever. Gonna miss you Big man."
Players Freddie Woodman, George Byers, Ben Wilmot, Bafetimbi Gomis, Mike van der Hoorn, Tom Carroll and Liam Cullen, among others, sent their best wishes to the Eames family.
Former Swans player Shaun MacDonald wrote: "I’m so sorry mate, he was one of the best. Big love to you all." |  |
