He later spent a season on loan at Real Madrid in 2006-07, winning La Liga.

After leaving the Gunners in 2007 he won the Europa League twice at Atletico Madrid and three times at Sevilla.

Sad news to see someone lose their life at such a young age. He was a decent player.
 
Very sad news. As a Arsenal fan I wont forget his contribution to our club. Did follow his career when he joined Real Madrid on loan and his spell at Athletico.
 
Very sad however it looks like he was the architect of his own downfall.
