Dalian Atkinson was a footballer admired by teammates for his sense of humour and dazzling skills.
His best-known manager praised the striker as someone who always performed well in big matches.
But when his playing career ended he faced a serious illness which left him struggling with his physical and mental health.
In 2016, Mr Atkinson died after a stand-off with two West Mercia Police officers outside his father's home in Shropshire. One has been convicted of his manslaughter but a jury could not reach a verdict on a charge of assault against the second officer.
