Former record-breaking footballer Norman Whiteside is selling his medals and memorabilia for £140,000 to top up his pension.<br />
<br />
The ex-Manchester United and Northern Ireland star said his 'small pension' from his footballing career has led him to sell his medals, caps and shirts.<br />
<br />
Whiteside made his debut for Man Utd aged just 16 and in 1982 he broke Pele's record of becoming the youngest player to appear in a World Cup aged 17 years and 41 days.  <br />
<br />
The attacking-midfielder was also United's youngest ever captain, aged 20. But the 55-year-old's career only lasted nine years before he retired through injury.<br />

The auction, comprising 60 lots, is being held by Ewbank's, of Woking, Surrey.
