Minute's silence to be held for Baldock at Wembley

Greek football was in shock Thursday at the death of Panathinaikos and Greece international George Baldock, with tributes uniting even the country's usually hostile rival fans.

The 31-year-old English-born right-back - a former Sheffield United stalwart in the Premier League - was found dead on Wednesday evening in a swimming pool at his home in the southern Athens suburb of Glyfada.

Baldock, who swapped England for Greece just a few months ago, will be honoured at the Nations League clash between the two countries. 

"UEFA would like to send its condolences to the family of George Baldock, the Greek Football Federation (HFF) and Panathinaikos following the sudden death of the Greek international," the body said in a statement. A minute's silence will be observed at the start of the Wembley match and the players will wear black armbands.
