Sir Alex Ferguson sets retirement date
By Paul Smith 20/04/2008

(What's this?)Sir Alex Ferguson has revealed to family and friends that he intends to retire - at the end of next season.

The 66-year-old Manchester United boss even considered walking away this summer if United clinched a Premier League and Champions League double.

A Ferguson confidant revealed: "He has made up his mind to leave inside the next two seasons and has discussed the decision with his wife Cathy and the family."

The scene is set for Fergie to retire in the summer of 2009.

He is adamant he will not publicly set a date for his departure but on the subject of retirement he confirmed: "I have a plan, there's no question about that."
