Ten Hag lays flowers in Old Trafford centre circle as Man United pay tribute to Bobby Charlton

Manchester United paid tribute to Sir Bobby Charlton ahead of kick-off against FC Copenhagen in the Champions League on Tuesday night (24 October).

Erik ten Hag laid flowers in the centre circle at Old Trafford before both teams and fans observed a minute’s silence.

Outside the stadium, fans paid tributes of their own, with flowers and scarves placed on the United Trinity statue, which features Charlton alongside George Best and Denis Law.

The England World Cup winner, who also captained United to their first-ever European Cup win in 1968, passed away over the weekend. He was 86.
