UPDATED FEB 4, 2019

Nearly two weeks after footballer Emiliano Sala's plane went missing over the English Channel, authorities said that they've spotted a body in the underwater wreckage on the seabed off Guernsey, according to reports.

A search crew found the missing Piper Malibu plane on Sunday after it disappeared from radar over the English Channel on January 21. The plane was carrying the 28-year-old Argentine football star from Nantes in France to Cardiff after his £15m move to Cardiff City and was being piloted by 59-year-old David Ibbotson. The "substantial amount of wreckage" of the plane was found on Sunday morning following a privately-funded search.
