Gordon McQueen’s family said football must do more to protect players after an inquest found heading the ball was “likely” to have contributed to a brain injury which was a factor in his death.
McQueen – who was capped 30 times by Scotland between 1974 and 1981, and played as a defender for Manchester United and Leeds during a 16-year career – died at his home in North Yorkshire in June 2023, aged 70.
