"The CBF deeply regrets the death of Jair, former right winger for the Brazilian national team, Portuguesa, and idol of clubs such as Inter Milan and Roma," the entity said in a statement. "He passed away this Saturday at the age of 84, in Osasco, Sao Paulo." It added that all games in Brazilian football's four national divisions would observe a minute's silence before kickoff on Sunday. Portuguesa, with whom Jair played from 1960 to 1962, also published a statement on social media in which it paid tribute to "one of the legends of our club". "Jair was discovered at [Portuguesa] and ... was also one of the first Brazilians to play in Europe. Our condolences to his family and friends," it said. In addition to his time at Portuguesa and Inter Milan, Jair had spells at Roma, Santos and Windsor Star. He earned one international cap and was an unused member of the Brazil squad that triumphed at the 1962 World Cup in Chile. UNI XINHUA AKT ARN
