Bristol Rovers players wore shirts bearing Junior Agogo's name before Saturday’s League One win over Oxford United.

Rovers' players paid a touching tribute by wearing shirts with his name in their pre-match warm-up against Oxford United at the Memorial Stadium.

The former Ghana international died at the age of 40 on Thursday morning in London.

Agogo played for Bristol Rovers between 2003 and 2006 where he scored 41 goals in 126 appearances before joining Nottingham Forest in the 2006/07 season.

Bristol Rovers also observed a minute silence for him before kick-off in their 3-1 home win.

He featured for the Black Stars of Ghana between 2006 and 2009. His three goals in the final stages of the 2008 Africa Cup of Nations helped Ghana to a third-place finish, adding to the three club honours he earned during his career.

He scored a total of 143 goals during his professional football career.
