Wayne Rooney and Gary Neville among ex-Man Utd stars to pay their respects at Denis Law's funeral Gary Neville, Wayne Rooney and Sir Alex Ferguson were among the footballing names who came together to pay respects to Denis Law at his funeral in Manchester on Tuesday.
The hearse made its way into the city centre from Old Trafford, where hundreds of supporters congregated as the funeral cortege passed a ground where Law’s success saw him immortalised in two statues.
One of those looms over the East Stand forecourt, with Law stood with his right arm aloft between fellow United greats George Best and Sir Bobby Charlton.
Bruno Fernandes, Harry Maguire, Tom Heaton and Maya Le Tissier represented the current teams, with chief executive Omar Berrada, Darren Fletcher and women’s team boss Marc Skinner also in attendance.
He then joined Torino FC in Italy for a short spell before moving to Manchester United in 1962 and then ending his career with City in 1974.
