La Liga authorities confirmed the match will be rescheduled to be played at a later date, which will be announced in due course. Other clubs from the Spanish top flight also expressed their sadness after the news emerged.
"FC Barcelona expresses its deepest condolences to the loved ones of the fan who passed away during the game between Granada and Athletic Club," read a statement from the Catalan kingpins. "Rest in peace."
Valencia's English account on X (formerly Twitter) posted: "Our condolences go out to the family and friends of the fan who lost his life in the Granada-Athletic match."
Players initially remained on the field while medical staff entered the stands to treat the fan in question. However, both sets of players were then ordered back to the dressing room after it became apparent the situation was more dire than first thought.
