Man United plan classy tribute to Sir Alex Ferguson on 40th anniversary of legendary appointment
Story updated
The story in brief
5-second readTo mark the 40th anniversary of Sir Alex Ferguson's legendary Manchester United appointment, the club have prepared a special honour.
From the source
Manchester United are reportedly preparing a special tribute to mark the 40th anniversary of Sir Alex Ferguson’s appointment. Sir Alex took charge of United between November 1986 and May 2013, a period during which he transformed the club into the dominant force in English and European football.
Before his arrival, United had not won the league title since 1967. He endured extremely difficult early years, which almost resulted in him getting the sack.
However, following United’s FA Cup triumph in 1990, this precipitated a sustained period of success, consolidating his status as the greatest manager in the history of football.
