Former Manchester United captain Bryan Robson has paid tribute to his close friend Ray Wilkins, who has sadly passed away at the age of 61.
Robson has released the following statement:
“Ray was so respected by everybody and he was a real pleasure to know. He is a sad loss for football, but a bigger one for society.
“I played with Ray at England youth level when we were 17, winning the mini World Cup in Switzerland and I roomed with him on that trip, so we go back a long time as good friends both on and off the pitch.
