Flight organiser David Henderson has been convicted in a trial relating to the plane crash deaths of Emiliano Sala and pilot David Ibbotson.
Sala, who played for Ligue 1 outfit Nantes at the time of his passing, died at the age of 28 when the plane he was travelling in crashed over the English channel in January 2019.
Ibbotson, 59, also lost his life in the tragic incident, which occurred while Sala was travelling to Wales to complete a £15 million move to Cardiff City.
A report from the Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) found that Ibbotson had lost control of the plane while trying to negotiate his way through bad weather.
They added that Ibbotson had also likely suffered carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning when the crash happened.
