More than £220,000 has been raised to fund a private search for missing Cardiff City footballer Emiliano Sala.
The official search for the 28-year-old Argentine striker, and pilot David Ibbotson, was called off on Friday.
But the cash, raised via a GoFundMe page, has allowed the footballer's family to fund two boats, which started looking on Saturday.
The plane disappeared from radar as the pair flew over the English Channel on their way to Cardiff last Sunday.
Footballers including Manchester City's Ilkay Gundogan and Barcelona forward, Lionel Messi who are among 2,448 people who have contributed to donations for the private search on a GoFundMe page.
Meanwhile, Cardiff's players will wear yellow daffodils on their shirts when they take on Arsenal in the English Premier League on Wednesday in respect of Sala.
