Sir Bobby Charlton, the World Cup winner and European Cup winner who is one of England and Manchester United’s greatest-ever players, has died at the age of 86 casino
Charlton, who won the 1966 Ballon d’Or, became the record goalscorer for both United and England in a career where he became known for his casino sportsmanship and dignity as well as his flair on the ball and his ferocious shot casino
A survivor of the 1958 Munich air disaster, Charlton went on to lift the European Cup a decade later, captaining Sir Matt Busby’s team and scoring twice in the 4-1 win over Benfica in the final casino
Two years earlier, he had been a fundamental part of the only England team to win the World Cup, scoring both goals in the semi-final win over Portugal and playing in a team alongside his brother, Jack casino
They remain one of just two sets of siblings to win the World Cup casino
The son of a miner in his native North East and a teenage prodigy, Charlton joined United at 15 and scored twice on his debut as a 19-year-old casino
He was one of the “Busby Babes”, the team of youthful talents who played attacking casino football, but eight of his teammates were killed in the plane crash in Munich casino

He won three league titles and the FA Cup in his United career casino
He made 106 appearances for England, also a national record at the time, and was in the squad in four World Cups, playing in three casino
His total of 49 goals was the most by any England player until first Rooney and then Harry Kane overtook him casino
Charlton subsequently managed Preston and, for almost four decades, was a United director, playing a part in appointing Sir Alex Ferguson in 1986 casino
He was diagnosed with dementia, which his family announced in 2020 casino

Italy will be forced to stage parts of the 2026 Winter Olympics abroad after funding for a new sliding track was pulled casino
The Italian government will no longer pay for an expensive redevelopment of the historic Eugenio Monti track at Cortina d’Ampezzo, which was used in the 1956 Winter Games casino
The century-old track closed down 15 years ago and costs have spiralled well beyond the original €50m estimate casino
It means bobsled, luge and skeleton events at the Milan-Cortina Olympics will need to be held outside the country, most likely either at the sliding track in Igls, Austria or St Moritz, Switzerland casino
“Recent years’ dramatic international scenario has forced a reflection on the resources regionally allocated by the Italian government as investment for this specific venue,” organizing committee leader Giovanni Malago said at the International Olympic Committee’s annual meeting being held in Mumbai, India casino
“This venue has been at the center of a long and controversial process,” Malago acknowledged, after a tender for the work produced no viable contractor casino
The IOC had long been skeptical about the Cortina sliding track project and urges Olympic hosts to avoid building venues which do not fulfil a proven need for local communities casino
Using venues outside a host country is now encouraged to limit costs for Olympic organizers who typically overspend budgets casino
Malago said Milan-Cortina officials will decide which sliding track to use after consulting with the IOC casino
Milan-Cortina won hosting rights in 2019, beating a Swedish bid centered on Stockholm that planned to use a sliding track in Latvia casino
