Tottenham have confirmed the death of defender Serge Aurier’s younger brother, Christopher, who media reports in France say was fatally shot on Monday.
According to the French reports, 26-year-old Christopher Aurier was shot near a bar at 5am (0300 GMT) in the southern city of Toulouse and there have been no arrests. Christopher Aurier played for French fifth-division team Toulouse Rodéo.
He came through the youth academy at Lens like his older brother, an Ivorian international and former Paris Saint-Germain full-back, but failed to break through at the highest level.
