(Reuters) - Former Manchester United defender John O'Shea will retire from professional football at the end of the season, his current club Reading said on Tuesday.
The 38-year-old's decision was announced on his birthday. He has spent the final season of his career at Reading after a seven-year stint at Sunderland.
O'Shea played in virtually every position for United, including in goal when he deputised for the injured goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar after the club had already used all three of their substitutes in a win over Tottenham Hotspur in 2007.
