Norman Hunter remembered - Memories of a Leeds United legend

The Leeds United family is mourning the loss of one of the club's legends.

Norman Hunter has died of the coronavirus, aged 76. He was admitted to hospital last week after being diagnosed with covid-19. Renowned for his fighting qualities as a player, he held the disease off until the morning of Friday, April 17. He made 726 appearances for the Elland Road club and formed a formidable partnership with Jack Charlton in the Whites' most successful era. We hope these photos of on and off the pitch memories provide a fitting tribute to Norman 'Bites Yer Legs' Hunter. READ MORE: Leeds United legend Norman Hunter dies aged 76
