Tottenham and Chelsea fans in stirring tribute to Jimmy Greaves with minute's applause celebrating club hero... with Harry Kane calling former England striker a 'legend'

Tottenham and Chelsea fans came together and offered an emotional tribute to Jimmy Greaves, who passed away on Sunday, ahead of the two club's Premier League clash.

Greaves, who died at the age of 81 after a period of illness, was regarded as England's greatest ever striker, scoring 44 goals in 57 games for his country, including six hat-tricks.

But he was even more a cult hero and club legend on both sides of London. He is Tottenham's all-time top scorer with an incredible 266 goals in 379 games, while at Chelsea, where his career began in 1957, he managed 132 goals in just 169 matches.
