Twiiter pays tribute to retired Nemanja Vidic
Nemanja Vidic has received an outpouring of tributes on social media after announcing his retirement.
The former Manchester United captain called it a career Friday - just days after his contract with Inter Milan was terminated by mutual consent.
Several of his former teammates at United took to Twitter and Instagram to pay tribute to the 34-year-old:
