Former Oldham and Manchester United goalkeeper Andy Goram has died aged 58 following a short battle with cancer.

Goram played 43 times for Scotland, being handed his debut by Sir Alex Ferguson. Ferguson took the shot-stopper to the 1986 World Cup before Goram also went to Italia '90.Goram will be remembered most for winning five league titles with Rangers between 1991 and 1998. He was voted the club’s greatest goalkeeper of all-time by supporters in 1999.
The Scottish giants announced the news of his passing on Saturday. In a statement, they said: “Rangers Football Club are today deeply saddened to announce the death of our legendary goalkeeper, Andy Goram, following a short battle with cancer. “The thoughts of the directors, management, players and staff are today with Andy’s family, and would ask that their privacy is respected at this sad time.” Gary Neville paid his respects to Goram, whom he played alongside in 2001.
