LOUIS SAHA ANNOUNCES RETIREMENT

Former Manchester United striker Louis Saha has chosen his 35th birthday to announce his retirement from professional football.

Stints at Everton, Tottenham and Sunderland followed after injuries marred his spell at Old Trafford and the Frenchman has now called time on his career after managing just six appearances for Lazio last season.
"I will stop to be call a professionnel (sic) footballer and wish many young talent to enjoy as much as me my football," Saha posted on his Twitter account.
"Want to thks (sic) all managers, all staffs ,all teammates, all opponents, all fans, for all support and love towards me during my football career.
"I'm a proud man but without you all I won't be myself now. Thx (sic) for the challenges thx for the help thx for the memories thx for the passion."

Saha appeared 20 times for his country and was a member of the Bleus squad that made it to the 2006 World Cup final in Germany.
