Van Gaal announces retirement from football
Former Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal has called time on his football career.
The 67-year-old, who won the FA Cup during his 2 seasons in charge at Old Trafford after arriving in 2014, announced his intention to leave football behind on Dutch television.
Van Gaal's trophy-laden career includes the 1995 Champions League title with first club Ajax as well as 2 La Liga crowns with FC Barcelona, a Bundesliga title with Bayern Munchen as well as 2 spells as Holland manager - who he guided to third place at the 2014 World Cup.
United was Van Gaal's last managerial role and he was the coach who handed Marcus Rashford his debut as an 18-year-old.
Rashford paid tribute to his former manager, tweeting: "Thank you for opening the door & trusting in me. Enjoy retirement boss".
