Manchester United great Ryan Giggs has hinted that he could retire from football at the end of the season. The 35-year-old former Wales captain's current deal with the European and Premier League champions expires at the end of the season. United winger Giggs told The Sun: "I will keep playing as long as I enjoy it, I am fit and the manager wants me.
"If one of those three things stops, I will consider retiring. It could be at the end of this season."

Giggs is British football's most decorated player and his 28 winners medals include two Champions League victories, a record 10 Premier League championships and four FA Cup wins. The 64-times Wales international, who broke Sir Bobby Charlton's United appearance record when appearing as a substitute in the Champions League final in May, has played 781 times for the Old Trafford club.
