Former Swansea City star Andrea Orlandi has revealed how he was almost a passenger on the tragic Germanwings plane that crashed into the Alps last week.
The current Blackpool midfielder, who was initially due to return to the UK following a trip to Spain on March 23, wrote on his blog: "I flew down to Barcelona on Sunday to sign the purchase of my apartment and I was planning to fly back on Monday morning.
"Due to a timetable misunderstanding I missed the flight back and I had to rush to buy a new ticket to fly that same night or the day after," he said.
"The option to fly to Manchester via Dusseldorf came up, the same flight that crashed."
