Busby Babe Jeff Whitefoot's final United interview

Last December, we were delighted to catch a glimpse of one of the very first Busby Babes, Jeff Whitefoot, during the live UK broadcast of United's away match at Nottingham Forest.

Cameras picked Jeff up in the crowd at The City Ground, a place where he made the majority of his 285 appearances for Forest.

But long before he joined the East Midlands outfit, he had broken into Matt Busby's United first XI at the age of just 16 years and 105 days old, making him the club's youngest-ever league debutant.

When we saw Jeff on our screens, we made a pledge to track him down for an interview, which was carried out just a few months before he passed away at the age of 90.
