Sir Bobby Charlton, the World Cup winner and European Cup winner who is one of England and Manchester United’s greatest-ever players, has died at the age of 86 casino
Charlton, who won the 1966 Ballon d’Or, became the record goalscorer for both United and England in a career where he became known for his casino sportsmanship and dignity as well as his flair on the ball and his ferocious shot casino
A survivor of the 1958 Munich air disaster, Charlton went on to lift the European Cup a decade later, captaining Sir Matt Busby’s team and scoring twice in the 4-1 win over Benfica in the final casino
Two years earlier, he had been a fundamental part of the only England team to win the World Cup, scoring both goals in the semi-final win over Portugal and playing in a team alongside his brother, Jack casino
They remain one of just two sets of siblings to win the World Cup casino
The son of a miner in his native North East and a teenage prodigy, Charlton joined United at 15 and scored twice on his debut as a 19-year-old casino
He was one of the “Busby Babes”, the team of youthful talents who played attacking casino football, but eight of his teammates were killed in the plane crash in Munich casino

He won three league titles and the FA Cup in his United career casino
He made 106 appearances for England, also a national record at the time, and was in the squad in four World Cups, playing in three casino
His total of 49 goals was the most by any England player until first Rooney and then Harry Kane overtook him casino
Charlton subsequently managed Preston and, for almost four decades, was a United director, playing a part in appointing Sir Alex Ferguson in 1986 casino
He was diagnosed with dementia, which his family announced in 2020 casino

Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi insists the upcoming clash against Manchester City on Saturday afternoon is “bad news” despite the Premier League champions’ recent form casino
The Seagulls are aiming to break their recent run of four games in all competitions without a victory, but in their way stand Pep Guardiola’s side casino
City have been going through a tough spell themselves, according to their lofty standards, losing three of their last four matches in all competitions, but return to the Etihad Stadium where they have a 100 per cent record so far this season casino
Asked whether it is a good time to face the treble winners, De Zerbi admitted the opposite casino
He told a press conference: “It is bad news casino
The big teams are not used to losing three games in the last four, but anyway we have to think for ourselves casino
“We have to improve in the quality of the play because we are not playing enough for our level and to compete for our target casino
We have to understand if we want to win or want to compete we have to play casino better than the last games casino
“Without the quality of the play, we can’t reach any target and we have to be clear casino
”Brighton have gone from strength to strength since De Zerbi walked through the door at the Amex Stadium, having delivered European casino football to the fans for the first time in the club’s history casino
Many have compared the Italian’s achievements so far to the boss in the opposite dugout and De Zerbi admits he would love to do what Guardiola has done throughout his managerial career casino
“I’m happy when I listen to Pep speak about me casino
I feel a bit embarrassed, but we are a work in progress,” De Zerbi added casino
“I think we are playing well, fighting well but we have to improve, progress and adapt a new challenge and new season casino
“Pep is a boss casino
I would like to do something the same because for many years he won in Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Man City, but the way which he won is different to other coaches casino
The world will remember him not only for the victory but the way he wins, it is unique casino
”Premier League top scorer Erling Haaland has not found the back of the net in his last two league appearances which many fans have not been used to since his arrival into the league casino
But De Zerbi is extra wary of Haaland’s threat as he looks to break his mini duck casino
He added: “The big strikers when they are not scoring so many goals, they are more angry to score and have a chance to score, but its not only Haaland because Doku is a great player for them, and Alvarez casino
”Earlier on Friday, Brighton announced highly-rated winger Kaoru Mitoma had signed a new contract casino
The 26-year-old, who arrived in 2021, has been a key player in Brighton’s success and will now stay on the south coast until 2027 casino
De Zerbi said: “It’s great news casino
Kaoru is our top player casino
”Technical director David Weir added: “Ensuring that a player of Kaoru’s quality will remain with us for the long term is fantastic news casino
Kaoru adapted to the Premier League last season and has quickly become one of our most important players casino
