Manchester United academy graduate and Premier League winner Danny Simpson is campaigning for better treatment for professional players after they retire, with the defender concerned about player welfare in football.
Manchester-born Simpson joined United's academy as a boy and he progressed through the youth ranks to make multiple first-team appearances under Sir Alex Ferguson, playing alongside players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Paul Scholes and Rio Ferdinand.
Simpson eventually left Old Trafford in 2010 and he had spells with Newcastle and Queens Park Rangers before joining Leicester City, where he would make 30 starts in their remarkable, history-making Premier League winning season in 2015/2016.
