Duncan Edwards (October 1, 1936 - February 21, 1958) was an English international footballer. Born in Dudley, he signed for Manchester United in June 1952 as an amateur and turned professional on October 1, 1953. He was one of the Busby Babes, the young United team formed under manager Matt Busby in the mid 1950s, and one of the eight United players who perished in the Munich air disaster. Many who saw Edwards play believe that had he not died young, he would have gone on to become one of the all-time footballing greats


On 6 February 1958, the aeroplane carrying Edwards and his team mates home from a European Cup away match against Red Star Belgrade crashed on takeoff after a refuelling stop in Munich. Seven of his team mates and 15 other passengers died.
