The 1962 Asian Games gold-medallist, whose finest days as a striker coincided with Indian football’s golden age, was suffering from breathing issues due to pneumonia.
Legendary India footballer P.K. Banerjee died here on Friday after fighting a prolonged disease.
Banerjee is made it through by children Paula and Purna, who are popular academicians, and more youthful brother Prasun Banerjee, who is a sitting Trinamool Congress MP.
