Former Tottenham, Derby, Hearts and Scotland midfielder Dave Mackay has died, aged 80.
He won 10 major honours as a player in British and European football.
The Edinburgh-born player also won 22 caps for his country and was named 'Footballer of the Year' in both Scotland and England.
Paying tribute, Spurs said: "He was one of our greatest ever players and a man who never failed to inspire those around him."
After winning all three domestic honours in Scotland with Hearts, Mackay joined Spurs in 1959.
He helped the north London club become the first post-war team to achieve the double of league and FA Cup in 1961, then won the FA Cup again in 1962 and 1967.
