The South Korean icon, who made over 200 appearances for United during the club’s most storied period after signing from PSV Eindhoven in 2005, is fondly remembered despite not being the most glamorous of players.
While higher profile superstars like Cristiano Ronaldo, Wayne Rooney and Rio Ferdinand naturally stood at the forefront of United’s success, the versatile and incredibly hard-working midfielder carved out a pretty impressive profile of his own, claiming four Premier League titles as well as Champions League, League Cup and FIFA Club World Cup triumphs during his stay with the club.
Since retiring in 2014, Park has since studied for a Management, Law and Humanities of Sport MA at De Montfort University, in Leicester, even famously turning out for the student union football team while there.
