The documentary on Manchester United presented by Éric Cantona is on the way

April 12th, 2021
Éric Cantona is one of the writers of "The United Way", the feature-length documentary on the history of Manchester United. In addition to the legend of the Red Devils, Mat Hodgson and Patrick Nathanson - already authors of several sports documentaries - have contributed to the writing of one of the most anticipated formats in England. The King, who wore the United shirt from 1992 until his retirement in 1997, has always declared love for the city, for the fans and for one of the most important sports clubs in the UK. The words "I feel close to the rebelliousness of the youth here. Perhaps time will seperate us , but nobody can deny that here, behind the windows of Manchester, there is an insane love of football, of celebration and of music" has entered in the books.

The narrative voice of Éric Cantona, with perfect English mixed with a French accent never completely eliminated, will alternate with that of other United legends such as David Beckham, Peter Schmeichel, Teddy Sheringham, Bryan Robson and Andy Cole. The documentary will start from the humble origins of the club up to the era of Sir Alex Ferguson, the man who changed the mentality of the club, passing through the tragedy of 1958. Among the speeches there will also be those of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, current Manchester United coach, and music stars.
The documentary, produced by Sky Original, will be available from 10 May on DVD and Blu-Ray and on Sky Documentaries and NOW starting next 24 May.
