Ugo Ehigou dies
|
Former England and Aston Villa defender Ugo Ehiogu has died at the age of 44 after suffering a cardiac arrest at Tottenham's training centre on Thursday.
A Spurs statement said Ehiogu died in hospital in the early hours of Friday.
Ehiogu, who was Spurs' Under-23s coach, was capped four times by England.
"Words cannot express the shock and sadness that we all feel at the club," said Tottenham's head of coaching and development John McDermott.
"Ugo's immense presence will be irreplaceable."

East London boy as well. Huge shame and a player I always liked.
My abiding memory of his was an overhead kick at Parkhead for Rangers. Wonderful goal and I'm sure Rangers fans and football fans will look back at him fondly.
RIP Big Ugo

When people younger than me are dropping dead of heartattacks, I must remember to whistle as I pass the graveyard. 44 is no age at all.

Didn't even know he was at Spurs. And yeah, when ex footballers start dying younger than you, that's worrying. RIP.

Pub Bigot - born in England of Irish stock. But I've never played for England (or Eire) so I don't see the relevance?
