Three Manchester United players are helping former teammate after early retirement

Former Manchester United goalkeeper Paul Woolston has thanked his old teammates for their support following his retirement from football.

It was announced in March that Woolston, at the age of 23, had been forced to hang up his boots following two operations and a lengthy rehabilitation period. He was determined to regain full fitness and reignite his career but was unable to achieve his goal.

The former shot-stopper, who last played for United's Under-23s in December 2020, joined the Reds in November 2018 following a successful trial period. Prior to that, he had spent time on the books of both Gateshead and Newcastle United.
