Former Tottenham youth and Portsmouth defender Anton Walkes has died aged 25 in an accident, his club Charlotte FC said.
The Englishman was involved in a boat crash near Miami on Wednesday.
Walkes came through the Tottenham youth teams and played once for the club, in a League Cup tie in 2016.
He also played 66 times for Portsmouth before moving to Atlanta United in the United States in 2020.
Spurs say they will wear black armbands in memory of Walkes during Thursday’s Premier League game with Manchester City.
In a statement, the Premier League club said: “We are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of our former player, Anton Walkes.
“As a mark of respect, our first team will wear black armbands at this evening’s Premier League match against Manchester City, with all our Academy sides to wear black armbands this weekend.”
