George Cohen is introduced to Queen Elizabeth II before the 1966 World Cup final
George Cohen, along with the rest of the England team, was introduced to Queen Elizabeth II before the final

George Cohen was a World Cup winner for England.

The right-back played in the side that won the World Cup at Wembley in 1966 and was vice-captain.

He won 37 caps for England.

The club said it was deeply sad to learn of the death of one of its greatest ever players.

Our thoughts are with George's friends and family, as well as his beloved wife of more than 60 years, Daphne.

Cohen played in every game of the World Cup.

He was one of five players from the 1966 side who were posthumously honoured after a media campaign.

Cohen played for the club for 13 years.

There's more to come.
