Man Utd, Barcelona send Heartwarming messages to Former Manager Louis Van Gaal after He Revealed Cancer Diagnosis

Former Manchester United manager, Louis Van Gaal, revealed on Dutch TV that he has been diagnosed with prostate cancer and he was keeping it a secret from the Netherlands Squad.

Since he made the announcement, there has been an outpour of love and support from the world of football. The 70-year-old gaffer was in charge of Manchester United between 2014 and 2018 and so the Red Devils were one of the first teams to send a heartwarming message to their former boss.
