His illustrious career at Manchester United saw him make 455 appearances and win numerous trophies, including six Premier League titles, three League Cups, and the Champions League.
In the build-up to the Champions League final, Ferdinand was subjected to a lie detector test, orchestrated by question master Joel Beya.
During the test, Ferdinand was asked if he believed Virgil van Dijk was a better player than himself.
Beya posed the question directly: “Virgil van Dijk, do you look at him and think, he’s better than me, you know?”
Ferdinand’s immediate response was a confident “No.” However, the lie detector’s results told a different story.
As his response was analysed, the individual monitoring the machine gave a thumbs down, indicating that Ferdinand’s answer was not truthful. This was further confirmed by the buzzer ringing to signify a lie.
Ferdinand laughed off the result, exclaiming “no way” in disbelief.
