The wife of journalist Grant Wahl has said there was 'nothing nefarious' surrounding her husband's death
Qatari officials said in a statement that Wahl “received immediate medical treatment on site, which continued as he was transferred by ambulance to Hamad General Hospital.”
Gounder heard of her husband’s collapse after news filtered through on Twitter, text and email, whilst she was finishing work in the US.“If he had a pulse when he left the stadium that would have been a good sign, but no one would answer the question. And so to me — I was scared.” Wahl was a famed American sports journalist, known not just for his coverage of football but other sports also, famously being the reporter behind LeBron James’ ‘Chosen One’ cover on Sports Illustrated.
His death prompted an outpouring of support from leading figures in US sport, including members of the national team who played at the World Cup and basketball icon James. Gounder was left ‘in complete shock’ over her husband’s death but thanked Wahl’s ‘soccer family’ and friends for their continued support.“To know that he was loved by so many people makes me feel a little less alone,” Gounder said. “It’s like a warm hug when you really need it.”
