Former Manchester United and England star Bobby Charlton died at the age of 86, the Premier League club said on Saturday.
Charlton was a key member of England's victorious 1966 World Cup team and also enjoyed great success at club level with United, who became the first English club to win the European Cup in 1968, a decade after members of the team were killed in an air crash in Munich.
He made 758 appearances for Manchester United, scoring 249 goals over his 17 years at the club and winning three league titles. He also won 106 caps for England, scoring 49 goals and played a key role in England’s World Cup victory on home soil, the only time the country has won men’s soccer’s biggest prize, scoring three times in the tournament.
He won the Ballon d’Or in 1966 because of his excellence at that year’s World Cup. The club described him as a “hero to millions, not just in Manchester, or the United Kingdom, but wherever football is played around the world.”
