Ezekiel Williams, a 26-year-old footballer for Hendon FC, has died following an alleged assault. The incident occurred in Milton Keynes in the early hours of Sunday, November 1. Mr Williams died in hospital the following day.

Family Tributes

His sister, Shadore, described Mr Williams as someone who was growing in his ambitions, becoming a football coach for children and developing his faith. She spoke of their close daily conversations, reflecting on shared moments and laughter. "Sometimes, when I came back from work, we would talk about how our days went with the kids and he’d tell me all the positives (and negatives) and then we would both laugh about the situation and carry on with the day," she stated. "We’d do it all again the next day, and the next, and so on."

His brother, Omran, remembered Mr Williams as dedicated and precise, noting both his soft side and his competitive spirit. "As his older brother, I can vouch for the soft, yet very exclusive soft side as well as his competitive high spirited annoying side too," Omran said. He added, "It brings me great joy and pride as his brother to see that some of my teachings became some of his core values, which led him evolving into the refined legend that his communities knew him for."
