Not been aware of this story until I've just read it on here having just got home from work. Several online papers are reporting the hoax which is all a bit baffling because it appears to originate from the Greek team he used to coach who say that his wife informed them of his passing and that they still resided there. The club then contacted Man Utd and it hit social media. Apparently, however, Remi and his family moved back to the UK after his spell in Greece and live in Greater Manchester.

Obviously good news to hear that he is alive and well but there are clearly some sad f u cker s about.
