Sir Alex Ferguson, Louis van Gaal team up for Manchester United charity golf day

Sir Alex Ferguson and Louis van Gaal team up for Manchester United's annual charity golf day.

Former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson and current boss Louis van Gaal joined together for a charity golf day.

The event, which is hosted by the club's Foundation every year at Dunham Forest Golf and Country Club, included former players Denis Irwin and Bryan Robson, as well as current captain Wayne Rooney.

Ryan Giggs, who works as assistant manager to Van Gaal, also took part in the golf day, which raised more than £20,000 for the Manchester United Foundation.

After his round, Van Gaal said: "I have enjoyed today very much. I think it's very important for us to get involved with events for the Foundation to help those less privileged. It's nice that fans want to pay to play with us and it costs us little energy to make a difference."

Ferguson added: "My golf isn't great but I'm happy to be here. The Foundation has done great work over the years and it still continues to do so, and you can see all the former players here who are helping to contribute."

The Foundation benefits local charities in Manchester.
