Brentford head of academy goalkeeping Ramsey dies

Brentford's head of academy goalkeeping Christopher Ramsey has died, the club have confirmed.

Ramsey joined the Bees in June 2023 as academy professional development phase goalkeeping coach before being promoted in July 2024.

Brentford will wear black armbands against Manchester City on Sunday and there will be a commemoration before kick-off.

Director of football Phil Giles added: Our fans may not realise the work he did here, and the important role he played helping Mark Flekken, Hakon Valdimarsson and our other goalkeepers in the last couple of seasons.

"We are incredibly saddened by his passing, but it is a moment in which we can also remember and acknowledge an excellent coach, a much-appreciated member of staff and, more importantly, a fantastic person."

Ramsey, who had bowel cancer, died on Wednesday.
