Former Tottenham Hotspur defender Goran Bunjevcevic has died at the age of 45 after suffering an aneurysm.
Bunjevcevic spent five years at White Hart Lane upon joining from Red Star Belgrade in 2001 when Glenn Hoddle was manager.
A tweet from the Lilywhites on Thursday night announced the tragic passing of Bunjevcevic, who was unable to recover from the aneurysm suffered last month.
