London London. Alex Ferguson visited his former club Aberdeen on Saturday as it was revealed this week that his lucrative role as Manchester United ambassador is to end. Ferguson, who won 28 major trophies as United manager, has been a global ambassador for the club since retiring in 2013. But the multi-million dollar role will end at the end of the season as part of a cost-cutting move. It was reported that Ferguson, who has been regularly attending United's games since retiring, already had a schedule and planned to miss United's game against Brentford at Old Trafford.
He was photographed in the crowd at Celtic Park in Glasgow to watch Celtic host Aberdeen in the Scottish League. Ferguson won 10 major trophies as Aberdeen manager before joining United in 1986. Aberdeen have made a great start to the season, winning all 13 of their games before taking on Celtic. That streak ended on Saturday, but Aberdeen came back from 2-0 down to earn an impressive 2-2 draw against the Scottish champions.
