imago images The Serbian Football Association have confirmed that Nemanja Matic has retired from international duty after 12 years of service.Since making his national team debut in 2008, Matic has earned 48 caps and last appeared at a major competition at the 2018 World Cup in Russia.In a statement on Friday, the SFA explained they respect his decision:Other than saying it was time for younger players to take over, Matic did not state any other specific reasons for quitting.Matic turned 32 years old earlier this month, but still remains an integral part of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's plans due to a serious lack of defensive options in midfield.He's the only out-and-out holding midfielder Solskjaer has at his disposal - not ideal when he needs to revert to a 4-3-3 from his preferred 4-2-3-1 system.It's not a secret Matic has no more than two or three years left in him as a quality squad option at Manchester United, which seriously calls for a long-term replacement.United's priority to secure Jadon Sancho's services seriously limits the chances of a top-class midfield signing this summer though, given the circumstances surrounding COVID-19.However, if the Reds are looking for a marquee acquisition this time next year and Sancho is wearing the number seven shirt, a holding midfielder must be targeted.Declan Rice, Wilfried Ndidi and Thomas Partey are three names on plenty of United fans' lips, but all three would demand big investment.A year on from now though, the club would hopefully be in a much stronger position to do so and if Sancho isn't the marquee arrival, one of the three above should be.Going into the 2020/21 season, it's likely the options to fit into Solskjaer's midfield pivot will again be Matic, Scott McTominay, Fred and Paul Pogba.Manchester United fans have voted which Pot 1 team they most want to face in next season's Champions League.Manchester United look set to verbally agreed a deal with Ajax for Donny van de Beek, with an initial bid imminent.Donny van de Beek has reportedly told his Ajax team-mates he's joining Manchester United this summer.Manchester United have reportedly joined Liverpool in the race to sign Bayern Munich midfielder Thiago.Reports breaking from the Netherlands suggest Donny van de Beek could be about to sign for Manchester United.Alex Turk explains why Anthony Martial deserves to receive his first Sir Matt Busby Player of the Season award at Manchester United, following the 2019/20 campaign.Joel Pereira has joined Huddersfield Town on loan for the 2020/21 season, his sixth temporary stint away from Manchester United.Manchester United's opening TV schedule has been announced by the Premier League ahead of 2020/21 season.Manchester United captain has revealed Greek officers told him he 'wouldn't play again' while assaulting his legs during his arrest.Fabrizio Romano has quickly addressed reports from Italy linking Brescia midfielder Sandro Tonali to Manchester United. Nemanja Matic has developed into one of the most recognisable holding midfielders in European football over the years, but the Serbian was never destined to become a regular in the position. 1.7m Followers, 10 Following, 280 Posts - See Instagram photos and videos from Nemanja Matic (@nemanjamatic) 5
