Rivaldo sent Alex Feguson his sperm in the post when asked to join Man Utd in '99

Brazilian ace Rivaldo revealed to espn.com that he once sent Alex Ferguson his sperm in the post.

The 36 year old striker, who now plies his trade in Uzbek league side Bunyodkor said this week "Manchester tried to sign me after their 1999 triumph. I was happy at Barcelona at this stage. So i did the inevitable. I jagged off into a bag and sent it to Sir Alex in the post. I told him he can clone his own Rivaldo with my love juice. He can even inseminate his wife if needs be."

Sir Alex Ferguson denies these claims
