Armfield, who was a member of the 1966 World Cup-winning squad, was diagnosed with cancer for the second time last year.

After retiring from playing in 1971, he became manager of Bolton Wanderers, leading them to promotion from the Third Division.

He then replaced Brian Clough as Leeds manager in 1974, taking Leeds to the European Cup final, which they lost to Bayern Munich.

He played 43 times for England, including 15 as captain - and a record 627 times for his club, Blackpool, with the cortege passing through the club's Bloomfield Road ground for fans to pay their respects, before a private family service.
