Anton Walkes, a defender for Charlotte FC in Major League Soccer, died early Thursday after he was involved in a boating accident in Miami. He was 25.

The Miami Herald reported that the England native was injured Wednesday after two boats crashed near the Miami Marine Stadium, citing the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. Miami Fire Rescue gave Walkes CPR after he was found unconscious.

“Everyone at Tepper Sports & Entertainment is devastated by the tragic passing of Anton Walkes. He was a tremendous son, father, partner and teammate whose joyous approach to life touched everyone he met,” Charlotte FC owner David Tepper said in a statement. “Anton made those around him better people in all areas of life and represented Charlotte FC to the highest standard both on and off the pitch. He will be greatly missed by many and our thoughts and prayers are with Anton’s family during this heartbreaking time. The Club offers its full support to all those impacted during this period of mourning.”
