Rory McIlroy receives invite to parade Masters trophy at Old Trafford as Ruben Amorim hails the Man United fan for achieving the 'impossible'

Rory McIlroy has been invited to parade his Masters trophy at Old Trafford after the Manchester United fan completed golf's career Grand Slam on Sunday.

The Northern Irishman became only the sixth man to complete the set of golf's four majors after a nerve-wracking final day at Augusta.

McIlroy overcame Justin Rose in a play-off to secure the fifth major of his career, ending an 11-year drought in the process.

The 35-year-old, who has been vocal in his support of Man United, will now be afforded the chance to don his green jacket and parade his trophy at Old Trafford.
