The 40-year-old will hang up his boots in the summer, having been with the English giants since 2005. Van der Sar is a fan favourite at Old Trafford and says that he will remain with the Red Devils in other roles after he retires from the pitch.
“I’m not going back to Amsterdam, though it would be very comfortable there with Frank de Boer, Danny Blind and Dennis Bergkamp,” said Van der Sar to Dutch magazine Life After Football.
“When I left 12 years ago, I said I would return, but I did not know then what great years I would have with Manchester United. I might occasionally visit training with them, but I will not be going regularly.”
Van der Sar further confirmed his non-playing role with the Red Devils and continued: “It may be that I’m going to give Manchester United clinics in Asia, where the club is very popular, or something in commerce.
“I think this is interesting. I have already held some talks.”
