Manchester United defender Paul McShane announces his retirement

Paul McShane has announced his retirement from football but will stay at Manchester United as a coach.

McShane has enjoyed a long career which began when he joined United as a teenager in 2002. Having left United to join West Brom in 2006, McShane would go on to make over 400 appearances at club level. He also won 33 caps for the Republic of Ireland.

The centre-back returned to United last year in the unique role of player-coach for the Under-23s and played six games alongside the youngsters. The 36-year-old has decided to call time on his playing days but will stay with United as an academy coach for the Under-18s to the Under-23s.
