Former England and Manchester United midfielder Owen Hargreaves says he is fit to play but has taken a year out "I just took a step back and decided not play to this year,"" said the 31 year-old former England midfielder. I am fit, I can play, but there are lots of different paths I can go down, playing, media, coaching. I've only played Champions League every year of my career so I am not going to go down the leagues. I will start my coaching badges soon at the FA.""
