Former Chelsea player and manager John Hollins has died aged 76, the club has announced.
Hollins made almost 600 appearances as a player for the club, scoring 64 times during his two spells at Stamford Bridge between 1963 and 1984.
He was appointed as manager in 1985, a position he held for three years.
He was a hero to the fans of this club, and very much that to me,” Chelsea board member Daniel Finkelstein said.
