The world of football and the world beyond football has lost one of the greats. A statement read: 'We are devastated by the news that Jack Charlton, a member of our World Cup-winning team of 1966, has passed away. My grandad, Jack Charlton, died peacefully at home. In a statement, Leeds wrote in part: 'Charlton's contribution to the game and Leeds United will never be forgotten. 'He will remain in football folklore forever and his records at Leeds United are unlikely ever to be surpassed.'
