Former Manchester United legend Wes Brown has been declared bankrupt.
HMRC filed a bankruptcy petition against the former Red Devils defender, who earned £50,000 a week at Old Trafford, on February 27 this year. It was approved at the High Court on April 12 and the order was published in The Gazette this week, the Mirror reports.
Brown, from Wilmslow, Cheshire, signed for United as a schoolboy and made his debut in 1998. He made more than 200 appearances for the club, winning the Champions League twice, together with five Premier League titles, two FA Cups and two League Cups.
