Former England football manager Terry Venables has died at the age of 80, his family announced in a statement on Sunday. Venables had managed the team at the Three Lions from 1994 until Euro 96 where they reached the semi-finals on home soil. He also had a good career as a club coach, notably at Barcelona, which he took to the Champions League final in 1986.
In England he was involved, among others, with Tottenham, where he also played as a player in the 1960s. “We are devastated by the loss of a wonderful husband and father who passed away peacefully yesterday following a long illness,” his family said.
