The mercurial Birmingham born striker died earlier this month and one of his favourite watering holes the commissioned ready for the match against Bayern Munich - the team he had his greatest night against in 1982.

The Witton Arms is holding a special ceremony at 4pm on Wednesday to unveil to the public the image of Shaw, who died aged 63, created by the artist Disney.

Shaw's talent and contributions on the pitch made him a hero to Villa fans, and this mural is a tribute to his lasting legacy. The artwork, prominently displayed on the pub’s exterior wall, captures Shaw in his glory days, celebrating his pivotal goals during that historic season.
