Manchester United will unveil a statue of legendary figure Jimmy Murphy at Old Trafford on the 65th anniversary of the Welshman leading the club out at Wembley.
Murphy's statue was announced in May 2021 to celebrate his huge contribution to United. He joined the club in 1946 and spent the next few decades at the club in a variety of roles until 1971, before his death in 1989 at the age of 79.
The most famous of these were as Sir Matt Busby's assistant and first-team coach. He took charge of United for the remainder of the 1957-58 season after Busby was injured in the Munich Air Disaster, which claimed the lives of 23 people and included several of the famed Busby Babes.
