Eric Cantona says he fears the day when Manchester United fans stop singing his name.
The Frenchman remains an icon at Old Trafford where he was the catalyst for an era of dominance under Sir Alex Ferguson. In four-and-a-half years at United, Cantona won four Premier League titles and two FA Cups.
Twenty-three years after he left the club, Cantona is still revered by supporters who continue to honour him with tribute songs. But the 53-year-old admits his memory will fade in time.
‘I feel proud, I feel great and I feel a bit afraid that they will stop – because they will stop one day,’ he said.
