Juan Mata wants to follow in the footsteps of Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs and play into his forties at Old Trafford. Asked if he can see himself finishing his career at United, Mata told ESPN FC: “Why not? I’m 29 and hopefully I can play football for some more years. “It would be great to play until I’m 40 like Ryan Giggs. “I would like to be associated with football somehow,” said Mata, referring to his post-playing career.
