In 2016, Fulham installed a statue of Cohen to honor their former player and the only footballer to have won the World Cup while also being under contract to Fulham on the 50th anniversary of England's World Cup victory. In actuality, Cohen has only ever won the World Cup in his professional career.
In the 1966 World Cup final at Wembley, England defeated West Germany 4-2 with the right-back starting and serving as vice-captain to Bobby Moore.
On home soil, Cohen participated in every minute of the successful campaign and earned a total of 37 caps for his nation.
Between 1956 and 1969, Cohen played 459 times for the Cottagers as a one-club player. At the young age of 29, a knee injury put an early end to his playing career.
This book is your one-stop reference for all the information you could possibly need on the life, legacy, and history of this renowned former player in order to fully comprehend the entire tale and how it ultimately came to pass.
