Drummy, who coached Brown with Chelsea's youth team, passed away at the age of 56.

Brown said: "It was so unexpected. We saw him around the training ground at Chelsea. He always came in and said hello, laughing and joking and having a bit of banter with the boys.

"I came from West Brom. He was my first under-21s coach. He believed in me and all of his players. It's very upsetting that he's gone. He was a great guy, a great coach, and he helped me so much."
