Former Premier League referee Uriah Rennie has died aged 65.
Rennie was the Premier League's first Black referee and was described as "trailblazing" by the Sheffield Football Association (FA).
A Sheffield FA statement on Sunday night read: "We are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of our former chair and trailblazing referee, Uriah Rennie.
"Uriah made history as the Premier League's first Black referee, officiating over 300 top-flight matches between 1997 and 2008.
"He broke down barriers, shaped our football community and inspired generations to come. Our thoughts are with Uriah's family and friends at this difficult time."
