World Cup legend Salvatore Schillaci has died, aged 59, after a battle with colon cancer.
The Italian icon, who lit up his country’s 1990 World Cup, played for Juventus and Inter in a glittering career that spanned 384 games and scored 159 goals.
The most famous of these came during that iconic summer in which Schillaci went from being relatively unknown to being a regular starter in a competitive Azzurri team.
He finished the tournament with the Golden Boot award, having scored six goals for Italy, as well as the Player of the Tournament trophy.
The former centre forward leaves behind three children: Jessica, Mattia and Nicole.
