Former football player and Match Of The Day presenter Jimmy Hill has died aged 87, his family have confirmed.
The Londoner, who made his name playing for Fulham in the 1950s, enjoyed a second career as a distinguished broadcaster.
He died after suffering from Alzheimer's disease for a number of years.
In a statement, Jane Morgan, spokeswoman for Hill's wife Bryony, said: "It is with great sadness that Bryony Hill and the children of Jimmy Hill have announced that Jimmy passed away peacefully today aged 87 after a long battle with Alzheimer's disease. Bryony was beside him."
Hill will be cremated at a private ceremony.
A service for his friends and colleagues will be held in the new year, Ms Morgan said.
Stars from the world of football paid tribute to Hill.
BBC Sport presenter Dan Walker said: "Very sad to hear about Jimmy Hill. He did everything in the game. Much of what we take for granted came from his drive to innovate."
Radio presenter and former Liverpool striker Stan Collymore described him as "the face of football for a generation".
Former England goalkeeper David James hailed him as "a legend", while broadcaster Piers Morgan said he was "a great football man".
