Very sad news, RIP.



Former Sheffield United defender George Baldock has died at the age of 31.

The England-born Greece international was found dead in the swimming pool of his house in Glyfada, southern Athens.

Baldock had joined Greek side Panathinaikos in the summer after seven years at the Blades.

Baldock, who had been capped 12 times for Greece, started his career at MK Dons on 2009 and played more than 100 times for them.

He had loan spells with several clubs including Northampton and Oxford United, before joining Sheffield United in 2017.

He made 219 appearances in all competitions for the club, helping them to promotion to the Premier League in 2019 and again in 2023.

Was just speaking to a Sheffield United supporter at the Premier Inn at Gatwick Airport and he was as pleased a me (a Welshman) that Baldock’s Greece got one over the entitled English with a fine display at Wembley tonight; with a little help from the Bluebirds Manolis Siopis…! :ayatollah:
