Munster forward Marcus Horan has revealed that he will retire from professional rugby at the end of the season.
The 35-year-old played 67 times for Ireland and featured in 224 matches for Munster.
"It was the right decision for me and my family," BBC Sport quotes Horan as saying.
"I have had a great career, enjoyed every minute of it, and I am proud of what I have achieved.
"To that end, I would like to thank all those involved for helping me along the way, be it at club provincial or international level."
Horan won the Heineken Cup with Munster in 2006 and 2008.
