A road adjacent to Manchester United's Old Trafford is to be renamed Sir Alex Ferguson Way in honour of their long-serving manager who retired in May after nearly 27 years in charge. Ferguson, who is now a director at the Premier League club, will also be given the Honorary Freedom of the Borough of Trafford at a formal ceremony on Monday.
The 71-year-old said: "to have a part of Trafford carrying my name is truly humbling."
