Manchester United have confirmed that Park Ji-sung has returned to the club to take up a role as club ambassador.
The former United midfielder will be welcomed back by the Old Trafford faithful, joined by former boss Sir Alex Ferguson, before the home clash with Everton on Sunday.
The appointment sees Park become the club’s sixth ambassador, joining Sir Bobby Charlton, Andrew Cole, Ferguson, Denis Law and Bryan Robson.
A club statement read: ‘As part of his role, the highly decorated player will attend various events and functions on behalf of the club, promoting the work it does within the community and with its partners, sharing anecdotes from his time at Old Trafford.’
Park enjoyed seven successful years at United, from 2005 to 2012, winning four Premier League titles, three League Cups, one Champions League, one FIFA Club World Cup and two Community Shields. The 33-year-old was forced to retire in the summer with a knee problem after his loan spell from QPR to PSV Eindhoven came to an end.
