Man Utd legends lead mourners at Denis Law's funeral three weeks after Scottish icon's death Manchester United greats led the mourners at Denis Law's funeral in Manchester on Tuesday, three weeks after the Scottish football legend died at the age of 84.

Legendary boss Sir Alex Ferguson was among the attendees at Manchester Cathedral, where former United stars including Wayne Rooney, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Gary Neville, Lou Macari, Bryan Robson, Darren Fletcher, Peter Schmeichel and Gary Pallister gathered to pay their respects.

Members of the current United squad, led by manager Ruben Amorim and captain Bruno Fernandes, were also in attendance, as was Liverpool legend Sir Kenny Dalglish, a former Scotland team-mate of Law's.

He remains the only man to have two statues dedicated to him at Old Trafford - one on the Stretford End concourse, the other as part of the United Trinity statue overlooking the stadium's forecourt beside fellow greats George Best and Sir Bobby Charlton.

Rooney, former United captain and the club's all-time record goalscorer, described Law as a "legend".
