Nemanja Vidic returns to Man United following retirement from football

Finally, Nemanja Vidic appears to have found himself a job where he won’t break his nose every other week.

By his own admission, the injuries had taken their toll on the big Serbian and prompted him to call time on his playing career in October.

Fortunately, it seems Vidic is keeping himself busy since leaving Inter Milan.

The Manchester United great has returned to his former club on ambassadorial duties to promote their pre-season tour plans.

United will head to China in July where they are set to face Manchester City on foreign soil for the first time in their history as well as playing against German giants, Borussia Dortmund.

The trip will be the first time United have visited Asia since 2013, under David Moyes. Perhaps a great omen for any potential Louis van Gaal replacements.

Great to see Nemanja Vidic in United colours again! He’s been helping us launch #MUtour in China.
