FOOTBALL legend Denis Law left a £2million fortune to his family, it has emerged.

- By Bart Dickson

The former Scotland and Manchester United favourite died at the age of 84 in January after a battle with illness.

Law, who revealed in 2021 that he had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's and vascular dementia, is immortalised in a statue at Old Trafford alongside George Best and Sir Bobby Charlton.

A Ballon d'Or winner in 1964, he lifted the European Cup, two English titles and the FA Cup in his years at Old Trafford.

Born in Aberdeen, Law began his career with Huddersfield Town, had two spells at Manchester City and also played in Italy, for Torino. Probate records have revealed he amassed an estate worth £2,035,475 which will be handed down to his family.

A will penned in 2018 ordered his wealth should be given to his wife Diana but she predeceased him.
