Manchester United to Rename Old Trafford’s South Stand, after one of the club and England’s legends, United director Bobby Charlton.
In 1953, Charlton joined United as an apprentice and made his debut in October 1956. He made a club record of 249 goals in 758 appearances for the Club.
Until recently, the 78-year-old Charlton also held the honour of having scored the most goals for England, with 49 in his 106 appearances, until current United captain Wayne Rooney broke the record against Switzerland in September 2015.
The unveiling of the new name will take place at the Premier League home game against Everton on April 2.
