Scotland was determined to obtain a transfer in 1988 when Gazza had some magnificent presentations with Newcastle.
The attacking midfielder was just one step away from crossing into Old Tuffford, but Tottenham snatched away his services.
Paul Gascoigne revealed Sir Alex Ferguson has forged him for snubbing Manchester United
Now the 55-year-old found that he met Fergie not long ago, and the legendary United coach still resents him for refusing to work together.
The former Rangers' star seems to regret his decision and found out he chose the Slurs because they offered money and a phone to his parents' house, as well as a car to his father.
North Londoners were better than United back then, but Ferguson soon turned his team into world winners.
Gascoigne told Rob Moore: “I saw him not long ago, Alex Ferguson. He's 82 and he was in a match last year. So they told me, Paul, Alex Ferguson wants to see you. I thought, hell, here we go again.
And he went, "How are you going?" I said: I'm fine, thank you. Besides, you fucking ass, why didn't you sign for me when you had the chance, nobody turned me down.
I said: I know, I'm sorry. And he said: You were a good player then, son”
I'm still upset to see him, thinking: Damn, what a coach. I turned down Man United because Spies offered my mother and father a house phone and 20,000 euros and my father a” car.
“At that time Spurs were better than Man United, they were much better. It wasn't until I signed up for the Spurs a year later that Fergie brought in Becks (David Beckham), (Paul) Scholes, and they began to win everything. Then think, wow”, he added further.
Gascoigne, however, has nothing but respect for Ferguson as he described it as the best “in the world”.
Lazio's ex-star insists there will be many good trainers in the future, but never another Fergie.
