Manchester United confirm that they will unveil a statue of Sir Alex Ferguson later this month at Old Trafford.

Manchester United have announced that they have commissioned a statue in honour of their longest-serving manager, Sir Alex Ferguson.

The 9ft bronze statue has been created by award-winning sculptor Philip Jackson and will be unveiled outside the stand named after Ferguson at Old Trafford on Friday, November 23.

Ferguson has spent more time in charge at United than any previous boss, winning 24 major trophies in a tenure that began in 1986.

The 70-year-old will join United legends such as Sir Matt Busby, George Best, Denis Law and Bobby Charlton who have been immortalised outside Old Trafford.
