Ferguson invited the pop legend to join in training Sir Alex Ferguson once invited pop legend Mick Hucknall to train with Manchester United – with the Simply Red star bringing his Miss World girlfriend along with him. Hucknall, a huge United fan, has been pictured sitting alongside the legendary United manager watching games at Old Trafford over the years. But the 80s legend once joined the first-team squad in training on the eve of a huge Champions League clash against Barcelona in 1994.
‘He could sing really well maybe he should have stuck to that one. I remember Keano giving him a b******ing because he kept giving the ball away.’ Hucknall is often spotted alongside Ferguson at Old Trafford Butt also revealed how Hucknall had arrived with Miss World on his arm earlier that day. ‘I don’t know what her name was, but she was a good looking girl. She came to the pre-match, he brought her in,’ Butt said. ‘I don’t think the manager was too happy about that.
