Next week marks nine years since the death of Sir Bobby Robson and on Saturday, Newcastle United and FC Porto both paid tribute to their former manager.

The Magpies took on the Dragões in a friendly in Portugal on Saturday evening and ahead of the game, Porto released a moving homage to Robson via their official Twitter account.

Prior to his five-year tenure at St James Park, Sir Bobby spent two seasons in charge of Porto, during which time he won two Portuguese titles, the Portuguese Cup and the Super Cup.

Like Newcastle, Porto have a statue of the legendary former manager in their museum and Saturday’s friendly – which is to mark the Liga NOS club’s 125th anniversary – was dubbed by Porto’s PR team as: “A match where Sir Bobby Robson will be remembered.”

RIP Sir Bobby.
