Michael Owen revealed today that Manchester United will not be offering him a new contract.
The striker told twitter: “The Manager informed me after our testimonial match on Tuesday that the club would not be offering me a new contract.
“I have loved every minute of the 3 years I have spent at such a fantastic club.
“I would like to thank the players, staff and fans for their support and wish them well for the future.”
He added: “I now plan to have a short holiday during which I will contemplate my next move.”
The former England international has been blighted with injuries and made just four appearances this season for Sir Alex Ferguson’s side.
Two of those came in the Carling Cup and saw him net twice in their 3-0 win at Leeds and once in their 2-0 victory at Aldershot.
