Legendary Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has revealed his pick to win the title this season.

Sir Alex Ferguson has expressed his desire for Bayer Leverkusen to win the German league title this season instead of Bayern Munich.

With Bayer Leverkusen currently holding a 10-point lead over Bayern in second place, the Bundesliga could potentially witness a surprise champion in May.

He told the Eintracht Frankfurt website: “I always hope to see the underdog win.

“Bayern fans may not agree with that, but like all the neutral fans in Germany, I really hope to see someone else win the league again.”

Bayern are 10 points behind Leverkusen in the Bundesliga title race.
