World football is mourning the loss of legendary coach Radomir Antic, who passed away on Monday 6 April in Madrid after a battle with cancer. He was 71-years-old.

The news was confirmed by Atletico Madrid, a club where he spent three separate spells from 1995 to 2000, most notably winning the league and Copa del Rey double during the 1995/96 season.

Antic is the only person to have managed Atleti, Real Madrid (1991/92) and Barcelona (2003).

He had a distinguished playing career as well, with stints at Partizan Belgrade, Fenerbahce, Real Zaragoza and Luton Town.

Antic was instrumental in leading Serbia to the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa™, where they were eliminated after the group stage. He finished his coaching career in China PR, where he managed both Shandong Luneng and Hebei China Fortune.
