London (CNN)The family of missing Argentine soccer player Emiliano Sala have pleaded with rescuers to continue their search for the plane in which he was traveling.

Police on Wednesday suspended the operation to find the aircraft, which disappeared over the English Channel on Monday, saying that a decision on whether to resume the search would be made in the morning. The single-engine Piper Malibu was taking Sala from Nantes in northern France to Cardiff in Wales, the home of his new club, Cardiff City.
