Shortly after private investigator David Mearns was hired to help search for missing Emiliano Sala, the plane wreckage was found at the bottom of the English Channel with a previously unidentified body.
Dorset Police confirmed yesterday, 7th February that the body was that of the Argentinean striker who was flying to start his new life with Cardiff FC in the UK from Nantes in France after his £15million signing to Cardiff FC when the plane went down.
A coroner’s examination of the body established which of the two men’s body was found.
Meanwhile, pilot David Ibbotson’s family are still waiting for him to be found. Friends and relatives of the pilot’s wife, Nora, reportedly said she was “beside herself” waiting to hear whether or not his body has been found.
