Torpedo debut
Police believe the 31-year-old's death could be linked to his business activities. The retired footballer, who became a successful television commentator and players' agent, made his Torpedo debut in 1990, scoring six goals in their UEFA Cup campaign.
Ankle injury
He picked up the ankle injury which effectively ended his career in 1993 before transferring to Dinamo where he had a stop-start spell.
