An emotional Graeme Souness has revealed Sir Alex Ferguson donated £20,000 towards his remarkable fundraiser for Debra UK.
At the age 70, Souness completed a brutal swim across the English channel in 12 hours and 17 minutes on Sunday. The Liverpool legend has raised more than £1.2million for a charity that supports individuals and families affected by epidermolysis bullosa (EB).
EB is a painful rare condition that causes blistering skin. Souness, who stepped down as a pundit for Sky Sports last month, was inspired to take on the gruelling challenge after meeting Isla Grist, a 14-year-old girl who is living with EB.
