Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes retired on Tuesday, ending speculation over whether the 36-year-old would continue for another season with the Premier League champions.
“This was not a decision that I have taken lightly but I feel now is the right time for me to stop playing,” Scholes said on the club website.
“To have been part of the team that helped the club reach that 19th (league) title is a great privilege.”
