Stellenbosch FC defender, 19, was reported to have been stabbed in the Mother City, according to a report by idiski times. The family of the deceased confirmed the player’s passing but request privacy in this difficult time of bereavement.

“It is with deep sadness that Stellenbosch F.C. has learned of the untimely passing of promising young defender, Oshwin Andries. The Club is not in a position to provide further information at this stage and asks that his family’s privacy is respected in this difficult time of bereavement.

“Andries was a gifted young footballer who graduated from the SFC Academy to make his professional debut at the age of 18. He later became the club’s youngest-ever goal scorer in the DStv Premiership and captained South Africa at the recent U20 AFCON COSAFA qualifiers.

“His presence, both on the pitch and off it, will be sorely missed. The thoughts and prayers of everyone at Stellenbosch F.C. are with his family, friends and loved ones.

Andries became Stellenbosch’s youngest ever goal scorer in the DStv Premiership when he scored in the 3-1 win at home to Royal AM on August 13.

RIP Oshwin Andries 😔😔🙏😔😔🙏 gone too Soon pic.twitter.com/5tAbUbDrUn
