Phil Jones has announced his playing retirement at the age of 32, the BBC reports. The defender played his last match on May 2, 2022 with Manchester United.
"My career finished shorter than I would have liked," he told BBC Radio 5 Live.
"[I'm] glass half full. [I have] completed my A licence and I want to get out there and challenge myself in coaching. Ultimately I want to take charge of a team. I am determined to get there."
In the summer of 2011 Manchester United bought Jones from Blackburn for 19 million euros. He spent 12 years at Old Trafford, scoring six goals in 229 matches for Red Devils, and played 27 matches for the England national team.
