Manchester United captain Gary Neville is ready to hang up the boots at the end of this season, it has been revealed.
The Sun says the Manchester United hero is out of contract in June and there are no plans to offer a new one.
Right-back Neville, 34, has been hit by a series of injuries over the last two years. Fellow United veterans Paul Scholes and Ryan Giggs have new one-year deals.
Ex-England star Neville has played 583 first-team games so far in a superb 18-year career at Old Trafford.
Manchester United captain Gary Neville isn't expected to be offered a new contract at the end of the season.
Neville is 35 next month, his contract at Old Trafford is up in June.
With no likelihood of it being renewed, retirement finally beckons for a man who has been as much the embodiment of Manchester United as any player who has ever pulled on the Red shirt.
Sir Alex Ferguson has always spoken positively about someone he regards as a true pro, who made the most of his ability.
The United boss said: "He never had the talent of Ryan Giggs or Paul Scholes but he had determination to make sure he was always in the team.
"He also showed that quality to come back after a year and a half out with injuries recently. At his age, it isn't easy.
"But he's been absolutely fantastic. It's a demonstration by Gary that he's never going to give in. He's an amazing man."
Gary Neville is set for talks with Manchester United at the end of the month over his future.

Neville, a United player since 1993 and holder of 85 England caps, is out of contract at the end of the season and has yet to be offered a new deal at Old Trafford.
