The defender was capped 63 times for the three lions and was a member of the team which triumphed in the 1966 World Cup.
He also made 283 appearances for Huddersfield Town between 1952 and 1964.
In a statement, the club said: "Ray is arguably the most successful
and best-known player ever to pull on a Huddersfield Town shirt.
"Until very recently, he was a regular supporter of the Terriers at
home match days alongside his eldest son Russell despite battling
Alzheimer's disease, which he was diagnosed with in 2004.
"The thoughts of everyone at Huddersfield Town are with Ray’s wife
Pat, his sons Russ and Neil and the rest of his family and friends at
this difficult time."
