"He wasn't just my cousin, he was my brother. We grew up in the same house."
Azerbaijan national team member Mahir Emreli spoke about his cousin Sabit Aghayev, whose body was found on November 1: "I found out that night. It's terrible news for me. We lived in the same house. When I went somewhere, I introduced him to friends as my brother. Because we were really brothers. This news shocked me a lot. I learned about such an event that night and couldn't sleep until morning. When I played for Konyaspor, he was with me and we lived in the same house.
The reason why I dyed my hair blonde for a while was also Sabit. He was a fan of Galatasaray footballer Mauro Icardi. That's why he asked me to dye my hair blonde. I did it. Sabit himself was also a football player. He played for Simurq, and played a lot of games in the reserve team. But later, because the Zaqatala club broke up, he quit football. He had a job, everything was fine. I don't know why he committed suicide. Because he was a very funny, cheerful person. Even when he wrote a message, he wrote so cheerfully that you thought there was no happier person than him. What happened, what happened... He was also married, he had a 4-5 month old child. But he made us all miserable and left. I can't come to my senses," he said in a statement to Qafqazinfo.
Mahir Emreli also clarified the rumors about his late cousin: "I also drove his wedding car. If he had any problems, he would tell me. I don't know why it happened like this? Everyone writes that he had debts, these are empty talks. No one can come out and say that he has debts. It had been 2-3 weeks since he moved to a rental house. But everyone says that he lived in a rental house, these are all rumors. It is such a matter that only his family can know. We cannot interfere."
