Viv Busby, a former striker of Fulham, Newcastle United and Luton Town, passed away at the age of 74.
The unfortunate news was confirmed by his former club York City.
The attacker, who was born in High Wycombe, joined Wycombe Wanderers in 1966 and played for the team for four years, scoring fifty goals in ninety appearances.
In 1970, manager Alec Stock signed him and he moved to Kenilworth Road.
Busby joined the first team shortly after, making his debut in the 2-1 victory over Rotherham United in March 1970.
