Former Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson and ex-Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger on Wednesday became the first managers to be inducted into the Premier League Hall of Fame.
The two men locked horns during a period of intense rivalry starting in the 1990s, winning 16 English top-flight titles between them.
Six players managed by Ferguson have already been inducted into the Premier League Hall of Fame -- David Beckham, Eric Cantona, Roy Keane, Wayne Rooney, Peter Schmeichel and Paul Scholes. Wenger arrived at Arsenal in 1996 as one of the first foreign managers in the Premier League, staying at the club until 2018.
Wenger oversaw an astute transfer strategy, including scouting abroad for talent -- fellow Hall of Fame members Thierry Henry and Patrick Vieira were two of his key players.
