Former Newcastle United midfielder Cheick Tiote has been described by Steve McClaren as the "toughest player" he has ever seen - but also a man with "the most beautiful smile in football".
Ex-Magpies boss McClaren paid tribute after the Ivorian, 30, collapsed and died after training on Monday.
"At Newcastle if [Papiss] Cisse and Cheick were smiling I knew the world was OK," McClaren told BBC 5 live.
"He was the kind of player that everyone wants in their team."
Tiote joined Chinese second-tier side Beijing Enterprises from Newcastle in February.
