Ray Wilkins: FA Cup final to feature tribute to late Chelsea and Manchester United great

Tributes to the late, great Ray Wilkins will be paid at the FA Cup final between Chelsea and Manchester United, the Football Association have confirmed.

The final pits two of Wilkins' former clubs against each other on Saturday, and banners in his memory will be unveiled at both ends of the ground ahead of kick-off.

The former England captain’s wife, Jackie, will also present the trophy to the winning team from the Royal Box and the matchday programme will contain a tribute.

Wilkins played for both Chelsea and Man United during a career which spanned over 20 years, and one of his most famous moments was scoring for the Red Devils in the 1983 final.
