Sad news shakes the German football world. Kay Bernstein made a name for himself in the circles of the Berlin football club Hertha BSC in the 1990s. In 1998, the Saxon native founded the fan ultra group Harlekins Berlin and supported his favorite team from the east curve of the Olympic Stadium. In 2022, the entrepreneur was elected president of the association. But now Kay has died unexpectedly at the age of 43!
Hertha BSC shared the shocking news via Instagram a few minutes ago. “Today, Tuesday, Hertha BSC received the terrible news that President Kay Bernstein died unexpectedly at the age of 43,” announced the “Old Lady”. They are stunned and deeply dismayed. The Hertha family mourns with Kay’s survivors and is “thinking of his family, friends and companions during this difficult time.”
Countless fans, players and other football clubs paid tribute to the club boss with touching words. “We are very affected. Our deepest sympathy goes out to all his companions, his family and friends,” writes Bayer 04 Leverkusen. Comedian Felix Lobrecht (35) expresses his condolences with “My condolences. Unbelievable” and a mourning emoji.
