The central defender shared a superb relationship with the goalkeeper at Old Trafford as they won several titles together, including the 2008 Champions League as the Dutchman saved Nicolas Anelka’s spot-kick in the penalty shootout in Moscow.

And Ferdinand has now hailed the 6ft 5in goalkeeper by saying that alongside Nemanja Vidic, the trio formed a partnership at United that will never be forgotten.

“What’s needed to be a great keeper: shot stopping, presence, authority, organiser, good feet, mental strength, agility, there are more… but one thing Edwin had more than any keeper I ever played with was – calmness & composure,” wrote Ferdinand.
