Manchester United have paid moving tribute to Stone Roses star Gary 'Mani' Mounfield after the bassist and lifelong fan of the club died at the age of 63 this week.
Mounfield is believed to have died at his home in Heaton Moor Stockport after collapsing following a seizure, with family sources sharing that although an ambulance was called, he couldn't be revived.
The rock icon's death comes tragically just two years after the passing of his wife Imelda, who died after battling bowel cancer for three years.
Among those quick to pay tribute to the Manchester-born star were his band-mate, Stone Roses' lead singer Ian Brown, and Liam Gallagher, but one of the most poignant missives came from the club that he continued to keep close to his heart.
