Former Burkina Faso international, Ben Idrissa Derme, has died after suffering a heart attack in a French Cup at the weekend.
The 34-year-old, who was capped four times by Burkina Faso’s national team in his career, was representing amateur side AJ Biguglia in a third-round tie, africanFootball.com reports.
He suffered a heart attack early in the second half.
Medical services treated the player on the pitch but they were unable to revive him.
Derme’s career saw him play in the lower leagues in France, as well as Moldova and in the domestic championship in his native Burkina Faso.
