Emlyn Hughes Dies

Former England and Liverpool captain Emlyn Hughes has died from a brain tumour at the age of 57.



In a glistening career that spanned three decades, Hughes won almost every honour in the game and his boundless enthusiasm and 100% commitment will be sadly missed by all.

Hughes had been battling a brain tumour for the last 15 months but his condition deteriorated in the last few days.

His wife Barbara said: "He died at his home in Sheffield with his family around him."
