Fergie suffers health scare at Old Trafford

Fergie

SIR ALEX FERGUSON was whisked to an ambulance after suffering a health scare ahead of Manchester United’s derby against Liverpool.

The Red Devils legend, 84, was at Old Trafford in Sunday’s crunch Premier League kick-off.

But Sir Alex was whisked to an ambulance before the game started after feeling unwell.

The 13-time Premier League winner was first attended to by medics in the Stretford End tunnel following his complaints.

He was taken to an ambulance and checked over inside the vehicle.

A source told SunSport that Fergie was sat up in the ambulance and was “okay.”

The legendary gaffer then left Old Trafford to head home.

United declined to comment.

Ferguson is a regular at home games and has a row of seats in the Old Trafford directors’ box.

The Scot was a club ambassador for 12 years after his retirement from management in 2013.
