Ray Clemence, goalkeeper of Liverpool and the English national team (61 appearances), who made an era among the goalposts of the Reds, died at the age of 72. In fact, he won the first three European Cups (1977, 1978 and 1981) won by the Reds, of which he wore the jersey (in his case almost always green) for 14 years during which he also won 5 championships, 2 Uefa Cups, an FA Cup and a League Cup. In the summer of 1981 he left Liverpool, who replaced him with Grobbelaar, to go to Tottenham, with whom he won a Uefa Cup and an FA Cup in seven years of militancy. Suffering from prostate cancer, he leaves his wife and three children. "He was a fantastic teammate, and I will never forget how he helped me fit in at Anfield", is the memory of Kenny Dalglish, another 'symbol' of the Reds. His rival for the starting position in the national team, Peter Shilton, remembers him this way: "I am destroyed by the news of his death, I was fond of him because he was a very good colleague and had a great sense of humor. I will miss him".
