Andy Coley has confirmed that he will retire from rugby league after Wigan’s clash with Leeds at Wembley in the Challenge Cup final.
The 33-year-old, who joined Wigan from Salford in 2007, has revealed that he will go back to his old job as a quantity surveyor.
"I've waited a long time to play at Wembley," Coley told the club’s official website. "I've been trying for 15 years to get there.
"But I'm retiring this year. I made my mind up in the last week or two and hopefully I can go out on a high."
The prop considered retiring last year but changed his mind at the last minute to sign a new contract under Warriors coach Michael Maguire.
"To be honest, getting beaten by Leeds in last season's quarter-final was the big turning point in my decision to do another year," he added. "Looking back now, it was a great decision.”
The Challenge Cup final between Wigan and Leeds take place at Wembley stadium on Saturday (August 27).
