Brain surgery recovery

Ferguson on the mend after brain surgery

The former Manchester United manager, who has been recovering at home for the past two months, has thanked medical staff in a video message released by the club.

The 76-year-old has also revealed that he intends to be back at Old Trafford to watch United in the coming season.

"Hello. Just a quick message - first of all to thank the medical staff at Macclesfield, Salford Royal and Alexandra hospitals. Believe me, without those people, who gave me such great care, I would not be sitting here today. So, thank you from me and my family. Thank you very much," Ferguson said.
