| Figo's post-football plan |

Luis Figo will retire this summer and the Inter winger has revealed what he plans to do after he quits the game.
The Portuguese international was close to leaving Inter during Roberto Mancini's reign as the two men didn't see eye to eye.
But the arrival of compatriot Mourinho persuaded Figo to stay on at San Siro for another season before calling it a day.
“I am very proud of my career and that I am finishing it as a champion with Inter,” the 36-year-old said in A Bola.
“It was great to work with a Coach who knows how to get the most of his players better than anyone else.
“I intend to retire outright rather than going to the Middle East or the USA to play.
“It would take something really special to change my mind. I just want to relax and learn to surf. One thing is certain though - I will keep the boots from my last game for the rest of my life.”
