Scudetto winner Boskov passes away aged 82

Boskov passed away in the same town he began his football career, Novi Sad.

Boskov plied his playing trade in his homeland for FK Vojvodina before moving to Italy where he spent a season at Sampdoria, and he would go on to make a name for himself as coach of the Serie A club.

He led the Genoa-based club to Scudetto glory in 1990-91 - their only top-flight title in their history - while also securing the Coppa Italia twice, the Supercoppa once and the European Cup Winners' Cup in 1989-90.
