The nine-year-old daughter of former Barcelona manager Luis Enrique has died after a five-month battle with cancer.

Enrique, 49, paid tribute to Xana in a heartbreaking post on Thursday afternoon, describing her as 'the star that guides our family'.

Xana had fought osteosarcoma - or bone cancer - for 'five intense months', the Spaniard revealed on Twitter.
Too sad for words
 
A story like this puts all of our so called problems into perspective.

Cancer research, and subsequent treatments are making leaps and bounds, but still a long way to go.

Tragic news.
 

I don't think I could have handled that. My daughter who was eight years old, contracted child onset diabetes (1979). 2 weeks in hospital, daily injections of insulin for life. That was bad enough at the time. Fortunately, she is now happily married with a family.

RIP, thoughts and prayers to the little girl's family.
 
I lost a friend to cancer when he was only 15. You cannot comprehend losing someone so young. Horrific illness.

My heart goes out to Enrique and his family.
