Haynes also made 56 appearances for England scoring 18 goals and he captained his country during the 1962 World Cup in Chile. In a statement, Fulham Football club paid tribute to the player. "It is with great regret that the club informs its fans of this very sad news and hopes that they will all join together in the one minute's silence in honour of The Maestro, this will take place on Saturday prior to kick off at the Fulham v Liverpool game at Craven Cottage," read the statement. "Known as 'the Maestro', he was idolised by Fulham supporters and remained at the Cottage throughout his career, despite offers from bigger clubs.
