Those who donated to the fund remembered Mr Spraggs as a “top lad” who had “not a bad bone in his body”.

According to media reports, the victim died after a fight in the early hours of Sunday morning following an altercation with a group of males in the resort of San Antonio.

A police investigation has been launched.

A spokesman for the Foreign and Commonwealth Office said: “Our staff are providing assistance to the family of a British man who has died in Ibiza and are in touch with the local authorities, who are investigating.”

Mr Spraggs is the latest British holidaymaker to die this summer in the popular destination.
