Jack Charlton died aged 85 on Friday.

Fans have left tributes to World Cup winner and former Leeds defender Jack Charlton outside Elland Road.

Charlton, who was a part of England's 1966 World Cup success, died on Friday aged 85.

Flowers, scarves and football shirts were laid around Charlton's personalised floor tile outside the stadium of the club he represented throughout his 21-year playing career.

And flowers signed from Billy and Taddy Whites carried the message: "Big Jack. Thank you for all at Leeds United you did. A true gent who will be missed by many. RIP."

On social media, a number of fans called for a lasting tribute at the stadium.

Lee Crossley tweeted: "We should rename Elland Road the Jack Charlton stadium."

Twitter user @LUFCalypso said: "Would love to see a statue for Trevor Cherry, Jack Charlton and Norman Hunter built somewhere outside Elland Road. 1,568 appearances, numerous trophies and other notable appearances between them should never be forgotten."

And @paudi_lufc wrote on Twitter: "Big Jack was always going to get honoured at Elland Road. Jack Charlton East Stand most likely. Just wish they'd honour these legends when they are around to see it, so that they can appreciate the legacy they've left behind at Leeds United."
