Reading FC has confirmed that former Manchester United and Republic of Ireland defender John O’Shea is set to retire at the end of the season.
O’Shea, who won five Premier League titles during his time at Old Trafford, announced his decision on his 38th birthday on Tuesday.
The versatile defender also won the FA Cup and two EFL Cups and was part of the United squad that won the Champions League under Alex Ferguson in the 2007-08 season.
O’Shea left United in 2011 to join Steve Bruce’s Sunderland, spending seven years at the club before signing for Reading last year.
But opportunities have been limited for the veteran this term and he has started only seven Championship games for the Royals, while he was on the bench for their FA Cup defeat to United at Old Trafford in January.
O’Shea has 118 caps for his country, was still a regular in Ireland squads until he retired from international football last year. His last appearance as a senior professional could come when Reading host Birmingham City on Sunday.
