Former Man United star confirms he needs hip replaced just months after retirement

Former Manchester United captain Ashley Young has confirmed he requires a hip replacement just months after retiring from professional football. The defender, who enjoyed a 22-year career including spells at Everton and Aston Villa, admitted that the condition of his hip is a lot worse than previously thought. Young spent over eight years at Old Trafford, where he won the Premier League under Sir Alex Ferguson before eventually calling time on his playing days.
