Bookmakers place Doctor Who star David Tennant as favourite to play Sir Alex Ferguson in a film about his Manchester United career.

Plans are reportedly already in motion for a film based on Sir Alex Ferguson's life and career as Manchester United manager.

The 71-year-old decided to call it a day on his 26-year tenure at Old Trafford, leaving behind a record of 38 trophies.

While it is yet to be revealed who will play the part of the Scotsman in the film, bookmakers have already starting guessing who could get the role.

Paddy Power have placed Doctor Who star David Tennant as the favourite at 6/1, while Michael Sheen, who starred as Leeds United manager Brian Clough in The Damned United, is also in contention at 7/1.

Tennant previously played Red Devils coach Jimmy Murphy in TV film United.
