Denis Law, the Manchester United and Scotland legend, has died at the age of 84, his family announced on Friday.
Law scored 237 goals in 404 appearances for United and was the last surviving member of Old Trafford’s “Holy Trinity”, following the passing of George Best in 2005 and Sir Bobby Charlton in 2023. As such, his death represents a hugely significant moment in the club’s history.
For Scotland, meanwhile, Law earned 55 caps having made his international debut against Wales in October 1958, going onto score 30 goals, which remains the joint-highest total in the country’s history, alongside that of Sir Kenny Dalglish.

Re: Denis Law
All football fans, whoever they support, must applaud Denis Law - such an extrovert on the pitch and a quiet thoughtful man when off the pitch.
Reading his obituary earlier this morning brought a tear to my eye.
RIP from a Gooner.
