Liverpool also paid tribute to their former players, writing on Twitter: “We’re deeply saddened by the passing of one of the greatest-ever goalkeepers, Ray Clemence.”

After moving from Scunthorpe in 1967, Clemence always trusted other players and only conceded 16 goals in 42 games in the 1978/79 season.

Clemence made 665 outstanding appearances for the Reds, winning five league titles, three European Cups, two UEFA Cups, the European Super Cup, the FA Cup, and the League Cup.

Between 1972 and 1983, Clemence won 61 caps for England.
