Spain manager Vicente del Bosque has confirmed he plans to retire after the UEFA Euro 2016 tournament next summer, although he will meet with the Spanish football federation first before making a final decision.
As reported by BBC Sport, he senses the end of his career is near, saying: "My retirement is close. If everything goes according to plan it [Euro 2016] will be the end. I am a man of the Federation and I have to speak to them before taking a final decision."
The 64-year-old has managed La Roja since 2008, taking over the team from Luis Aragones, who had just guided the team to the European title.
