Sir Alex Ferguson to Retire As Manchester United Manager At The End Of The Season
Wednesday, May 08, 2013Omoba
Sir Alex Ferguson will step down as Manchester
United manager at the end of the season after 26 years in charge. The Scot, 71, has won 38 trophies since taking over
from Ron Atkinson on 6 November 1986, including this season's Premier League
title.
His haul includes 13 titles, two Champions League
crowns, five FA Cups and four League Cups.
"The decision to retire is one that I have
thought a great deal about. It is the right time," Ferguson said. "It was important to me to leave an
organisation in the strongest possible shape and I believe I have done so.
"The quality of this league-winning squad, and
the balance of ages within it, bodes well for continued success at the highest
level whilst the structure of the youth set-up will ensure that the long-term
future of the club remains a bright one."
