Manchester United have sent their well-wishes to former goalkeeper Andy Goram, who has been told he has just six months to live following a terminal cancer diagnosis.
The 58-year-old has opted against having chemotherapy after seeing how the treatment affected ex-wife Miriam last year, who herself battled the disease. Goram played twice for United in 2001 while on loan from Motherwell.
He is most remembered for his time at Rangers where he won five league titles between 1991 and 1998. He was handed his Scotland debut by Sir Alex Ferguson, who named him in his 1986 World Cup squad. He would go on to earn 43 caps overall.

United have sent Goram a message of support following his diagnosis. On their website, the club said: “Everybody at Manchester United is thinking of Andy Goram and his family after our former goalkeeper announced he has terminal cancer.
“Andy, everyone at United is thinking of you and sending you strength at this difficult time.” Goram told the Daily Record that he will “fight like never before” and vowed to “still be myself” while still being able to see friends and supporters.
