Sir Alex Ferguson stands as a colossus in the world of football. As the longest-serving and most successful manager of Manchester United, he has left an indelible mark on the sport. With a career spanning over two decades, Ferguson has witnessed countless triumphs, challenges, and unforgettable moments.
Born in Govan, Scotland, in December 1941, Ferguson began his playing career as an apprentice for Queen's Park before moving to Dunfermline Athletic as a professional. After a promising start, injuries forced him to retire from playing at the age of 28. However, his passion for the game remained, and Ferguson embarked on a coaching career that would eventually lead him to the pinnacle of football management.
Ferguson's first managerial role was at East Stirlingshire in 1974. He then went on to manage St. Mirren and Aberdeen, where he won the European Super Cup in 1983. His success with Aberdeen caught the attention of Manchester United, who appointed him as their manager in November 1986.
