'El Tel' at 80: From his cup triumphs at Spurs and Chelsea, reviving the fortunes of Barcelona and managing England at Euro '96 - relive the greatest moments of legendary player and manager Terry Venables

Terry Venables turns 80 today, and to celebrate the legendary player and manager’s birthday Sportsmail looks back at some of his most memorable moments in pictures.

A skilful midfielder, Venables came through the Chelsea academy and made his senior debut in 1960 after winning back-to-back FA Youth Cups. He won promotion back to the First Division after the Blues were relegated in 1962, and scored a penalty in the 1965 League Cup final first leg as Chelsea beat Leicester 3-2 to take the trophy.

Venables signed for Tottenham in 1966, where he won the FA Cup in 1967 - beating former club Chelsea in the final - as well as that year’s Charity Shield.
