Inter Milan veteran Figo admits likely retirement

Inter Milan midfielder Luis Figo admits he's likely to hang up his boots at the end of the season.

"It is the first time I have won a title without actually playing," the Inter star told Portuguese newspaper A Bola.

"I think it is the best way to end my career. I am leaving and I know that I will never again play at the highest level.

"I don't think I will accept any other type of offers either, even if I know they will arrive from outside Europe.

"The way I feel today, I think I'll turn them down."
