Motherwell captain Phil O'Donnell tragically died today after collapsing during his side's 5-3 victory over Dundee Utd today.
His initial stint at Motherwell was back in 1990 where he was twice named Scottish PFA Young Player of the Year, while also earning a cap for Scotland. O'Donnell was soon snapped up by Celtic for £1.75m after helping 'Well win the Scottish Cup in 1994.
He played 89 times and scored 16 goals during his time with the Glasgow giants, before moving to Sheffield Wednesday after 4 years.
His time down south was ravaged by injury, and he only managed a handful of appearances in 4 years with the side.
In 2003 he returned to Motherwell and was made captain. He made 77 starts during his second spell there, before the shocking news today.
Our condolences are with his family and friends. RIP Phil O'Donnell.
