The pilot of a plane in which footballer Emiliano Sala died described the aircraft as "dodgy" and vowed to wear his lifejacket prior to the fatal flight.

An inquest in March found the Argentina-born striker died from head and chest injuries but was deeply unconscious, having been poisoned by fumes from the Piper Malibu's faulty exhaust system, on the evening of January 21 2019.
