Vidic, who won five Premier League titles and the 2007-08
Champions League in an eight-year spell at Old Trafford, conceded injuries
had forced him to call time on his career.
The Serb was granted his release from Inter Milan
earlier this month after an injury-plagued 18-month stint in Italy.
"The time has come for me to hang up my boots,"
Vidic said in a statement on United's website. "The injuries I have had in
the last few years have taken their toll.
"I would like to thank all the players I have played
with, all the managers and staff I have worked with, and say a big thank you to
the fans for their support over the years."
Vidic - who made 56 appearances for Serbia - joined United
in the 2005-06 season from Spartak Moscow and went on to form a fine
centre-back partnership with Rio Ferdinand.
He left Old Trafford to join Inter in July 2014 and played
28 times for the club, scoring one goal.
