I partied with Eric till 4am-the next day I heard he had retired!

Despite partying with the French star until 4am on the eve of his retirement, Solskjaer and his team-mates were completely unaware that he was just hours away from hanging up his boots.

The Reds had just clinched the Premier League title in the 1996/97 season and were celebrating with an end-ofseason party.

The players and their partners gathered at a restaurant, staying up late into the night to bid farewell before reconvening weeks later for pre-season training.

Cantona was part of the festivities that night, but his actions the following day sent shockwaves through the football world.
