Nemanja Vidic: I Have Decided to Move On

Nemanja Vidic

The 32-year old Serbian footballer has announced he will leave the club at the end of the season.

The Red Devil's centre back who has spent eight years in the EPL and has also won trophies has decided to move on. He stated he has no interest playing for any other English team.

“It’s the last year of my contract and I have had eight wonderful years here,” Vidic said as quoted in The Times.

“My time at this great club will always rank as the best years of my career. I never could have imagined winning 15 trophies and I will never forget that fantastic night in Moscow [when United beat Chelsea to win the Champions League in 2008], memories that will live with me and the fans forever.

“However, I have decided that I will move on at the end of this season. I want to challenge myself again and try to make the best of myself in the coming years. I’m not considering staying in England as the only club I ever wanted to play for here is Manchester United.

“I’ve got a few options to move on and I will choose the right one for me and for my family.

“I am going to focus all my efforts on playing for Manchester United and do the best I can for the team until the end of the season. I hope this stops any further speculation about my future.”

Italy might just be the Serbian's next destination as Inter Milan and Fiorentina are among the clubs interested in him.

News have it that Rio Ferdinand and Patrick Evra's contract will expire at the end of this season.

The prospect of Manchester United losing three key defenders will be a huge blow to the Scot.
