The England and Manchester United football legend died yesterday at age 86.
Floral tributes are laid in memory of Bobby Charlton by The United Trinity statue at Old Trafford, Manchester.
“Very sad news today, of the true Greats Sir Bobby Charlton has passed away,” Hurst wrote on X, formerly Twitter.“A great colleague & friend he will be sorely missed by all of the country beyond sport alone.” “I will be forever grateful to a man I was named after, someone I looked up to and was a hero to many around the world, not just in Manchester and our country where he won the World Cup in 1966.
“Sir Bobby was always great with me. We had conversations not just about football but about life,” said Rooney, who has just returned to English football as Birmingham City manager. Gary Neville, the former Manchester United captain, said on social media Charlton was “the Greatest English Football player and Manchester United’s greatest ambassador” .For former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand, Charlton was “Mr Manchester United” — and recalled they had exchanged words when United won the European Cup for the third time in 2008.
“A lot of the history was living and breathing through him and he was a constant at the club while I was there — travelling with us all over the world.
