It is with the very deepest of regret that Everton Football Club has to report the death of Everton and England legend Alan Ball.
Alan, aged 61, died unexpectedly at his home last night from a suspected heart attack.
The Club has announced they will be paying tribute to Alan ahead of this weekend's Barclay's Premiership meeting with Manchester United.
Moves are also being made to open a book of condolence at Goodison Park and online at evertonfc.com. Further details to be announced shortly.
