Guo Jiaxuan, a promising Chinese footballer and former member of Bayern Munich’s World Squad, tragically passed away on March 19, 2025, just one day before his 19th birthday. The young athlete sustained a severe head injury during a training match in Spain on February 6, 2025, which led to a coma and, ultimately, his untimely death.

Despite exhaustive medical efforts, he remained in a coma until his passing.

In response to his passing, Bayern Munich released a statement expressing deep sorrow and extending condolences to Guo’s family and friends. Similarly, Beijing Guoan, his last affiliated club, conveyed profound grief and committed to supporting his family during this challenging period.
