The legendary Celtic captain and manager Billy McNeill has died at the age of 79.
McNeill was the first British man to lift the European Cup when Celtic beat Inter Milan in 1967.
He also captained the club to nine successive titles.
He began his management career at Clyde, before spending one season at Aberdeen where he led the Dons to a second-placed finish in 1978, their best showing for six seasons.
In two spells as Celtic boss, he won four titles and four cups. He managed Manchester City and Aston Villa too.
McNeill had been suffering from dementia since 2010 and was unable to speak during his final years.
Celtic said this morning he “passed away surrounded by his family and loved ones”.
A statement said: “He suffered from dementia for a number of years and fought bravely to the end, showing the strength and fortitude he always has done throughout his life.
“We would also like to note our love and appreciation to our mother, Liz, for the care, devotion and love she gave to our father throughout his illness. No one could have done any more.
Whilst this is a very sad time for all the family and we know our privacy will be respected, our father always made time for the supporters so please tell his stories, sing his songs and help us celebrate his life.”
