Everton great Kevin Campbell passed away over the weekend.

The striker, whose legendary spell in the final stages of the 1998-99 campaign helped lift the Blues to safety, was aged 54.

News Campbell was battling serious illness had emerged earlier this month, prompting an outpouring of heartfelt messages of support.

Kevin Campbell's son Tyrese paid an emotional tribute to his father following the Everton great's death at the age of just 54, which has triggered a wave of tributes from across football.

Campbell arrived at Goodison Park on loan from Turkish side Trabzonspor in the spring of 1999 with the club's Premier League status at risk. His run of nine goals in five games led the Blues to safety and paved the way for a permanent move.

In total, the former Arsenal and Nottingham Forest star scored 51 goals across 164 appearances for Everton, including a fourth-minute Merseyside derby winner against Liverpool on September 27, 1999. It is a result that remains the Blues’ most-recent success at Anfield in front of supporters.
