Milan captain Paolo Maldini says he expects this season to be his final campaign before he retires from the game.

The 38-year-old defender, who won a record 126 caps for Italy, told the daily La Repubblica he was fighting a losing battle with his injured knee.

“I’m suffering a lot. At this moment I really think I could quit in June,” said Maldini.

Maldini made his debut for the club in January 1985 and has never played for any other team.

He has won four European Cups and seven Italian league titles.
