Manchester United's Premier League game with Bournemouth has been cancelled due to safety fears at Old Trafford stadium, the two football clubs confirmed via tweets on Sunday.

Two stands were evacuated over a "suspect package" - with Manchester United's final league game of the season abandoned just minutes before it was due to kick off at 3 p.m. Sunday.

It was the Sir Alex Ferguson North Stand and the Stretford End that were evacuated at about 2:30 p.m. - equating to more than half the 75,600-seater stadium.

Fans in the other two stands were initially told to remain in their seats but have now been cleared following the decision to call off the match.

"Due to the discovery of a suspect package in the NW Quadrant of the ground, the match has been abandoned today on police advice," Manchester United tweeted.

An "operation code red" alert was heard at the stadium shortly before the kick-off, according to the club.

Sniffer dogs were brought to search the ground and security personnel guided people from the scene.
