Funeral held for Man Utd legend Denis Law, drawing famous footballers and fans to pay respects The footballing community gathered in Manchester to pay their final respects to Denis Law after he died last month aged 84.

Alex Stepney, Willie Morgan and Brian Kidd were among Law's former Manchester United teammates at the service, as was former Manchester City contemporary Mike Summerbee.

The former Manchester United and Manchester City forward had a private funeral on Tuesday, attended by family, friends and familiar Manchester United faces.

Sir Alex paid tribute to Law in January, saying: "Once you knew Denis and saw him as a player, you just thought 'wow, this is a player'.

Law remains the only Scottish player to have ever won the Ballon d'Or - considered one of football's most prestigious individual awards.
