Jack Charlton: England World Cup winner, dies aged 85

Jack Charlton, a World Cup winner with England and a former Republic of Ireland manager, has died aged 85.

Charlton, the elder brother of Bobby, played 35 times for England as a central defender, including all six matches at the 1966 World Cup. He spent his whole playing career at Leeds United and after retiring as a player became a successful manager. He started with Middlesbrough, but is arguably best remembered as a manager for his work with the Republic of Ireland.

Rest in peace Jack.
