In the history of English football there can be few who have matched the dedication, commitment and loyalty to a single club that Tony Book demonstrated for Manchester City.

Former Manchester City captain and manager Tony Book died at the age of 90 on Monday, the Premier League club said on Tuesday.

Tony Book’s story at Manchester City began at the age of 32, with the full-back affectionately known as Skip going on to captain the club to success in the late 1960s and early 1970s before also becoming a trophy-winning manager during a golden era at Maine Road.
