van der Sar

Manchester United's keeper Edwin van der Sar has confirmed that he will retire at the end of the season.


The 40-year old who had a glittering career wants to retire to take care of his wife's health.


van Der Sar has played for Ajax, Juventus, Fulham and Manchester United. He also has over 130 caps and won the Champions League twice with Ajax and Manchester United.


Many would feel that he perhaps has another year in him but his wife's health complications meant that a decision had to be taken.
