2019 was a very hard year for Luis Enrique's family. The former soccer player and coach was in charge of announcing the sad news of the death of his daughter Xana, just nine years old, due to osteosarcoma. ''We will miss you very much, but we will remember you every day of our lives,'' he declared at the time.
A promise that they have been fulfilling year after year as we have seen. And this Tuesday, August 29, four years have passed since the death of her little girl and her sister, Sira Martínez, wanted to remember her on her social networks.
The influencer has shared several snapshots on her Instagram stories dedicated to little Xana. In one of them, Luis Enrique's daughter wanted to accompany the tender image with the text "I love you", accompanied by a blue heart emoticon.
The youngest of the family was the result of the marriage of a former soccer player with the flight attendant Elena Cullell. The couple, who have been married for more than 25 years, have two other children, Sira Martínez and the eldest, Pacho Martínez. In that 2023, little Xana should have turned 13, but her light went out four years ago due to bone cancer she suffered from.
For the moment Luis Enrique has not spoken on such an important day, but he already did so with an emotional video last November, when the little girl should have turned 13 years old. After this hard blow, the family has remained together to try to face the loss of the little girl, but always keeping a low profile about her private life.
For this reason, the one we have been able to learn the most about during all this time has been the middle daughter of Luis Enrique, who has managed to gain a foothold both on social networks and in the world of sport. A passion that he has undoubtedly inherited from his father.
At 23 years old, Sira Martínez can already boast of being an elite athlete in horse riding. From a very young age, she always stood out for her great love for horses, which led her to pursue her greatest dream. Such has been her success, that in 2020 she was proclaimed champion of Spain Young Rider 2020.
Her private life has also been in the center of media focus for long periods of time, since the young woman had a relationship with the well-known soccer player Ferran Torres. But after two years of dating, the couple parted ways in May 2023.
