“Hey brothers, how’s everything going? Brother, I’m dead. I was in Nantes doing stuff, stuff, stuff and stuff… neverending, neverending, neverending, neverending. So anyway boys, I’m now on a plane which seems to be falling apart.

“And now I’m leaving for Cardiff, crazy that tomorrow I’ll be training in the afternoon with my new teammates. We’ll see what happens.

“So how are things with you brothers? All well?

“In an hour and a half if you haven’t had news of me, I don’t know if they’ll send someone to look for me, because they’re not going to find me. But, you know…

“Dad, I’m so scared.”

A statement released by Guernsey Police on Tuesday evening said: “During the course of the 15-hour search, which used multiple air and sea assets from the Channel Islands, UK and France, a number of floating objects have been seen in the water. We have been unable to confirm whether any of these are from the missing aircraft.

“We have found no signs of those on board. If they did land on the water, the chances of survival are at this stage, unfortunately, slim.

“Two planes and a lifeboat are still searching.

“Search and rescue operations have been suspended as the sun has now set. The current plan is for it to resume at sunrise tomorrow. There will be no further updates tonight.”
