After having the papers auction off his position at the club all week, Sir Alex Ferguson has fired back in resounding fashion.
Speaking at his Friday press conference, Fergie told the assembled press:
“It is rubbish, I have no intention of retiring and if I did the people I would tell are [chief executive] David Gill and the Glazer family. You’ll be gone before I’m gone!”
A number of managers had been lined up for the position this week including Jose Mourinho, Pep Guardiola and David Moyes but Sir Alex Ferguson has claimed only his health will dictate when he leaves saying,
“There is pressure in life. I can deal with it. The only thing that determines whether I stay here is my health. And I am in rude health.”
