Rio Ferdinand has signalled
his intent to spend the rest of
his playing career at Old Trafford.
Ferdinand told BBC Radio Leeds:
"I have two more years on my contract,
I'd like to finish my career at United.
"The club have made an approach to my agent but there's so many games it's difficult to get around the table."
The 29-year-old added: "By the end of the season, if not sooner, it should be done and dusted."
Ferdinand revealed his plans for the future speaking to his former Leeds United coach Eddie Gray on BBC Radio Leeds.
He said: "I'm enjoying my life, football is that much sweeter when you're winning."
Ferdinand was handed the England captaincy in the 1-0 friendly defeat to France and it is an honour he is eager to take on again.
"Being given the duty the other day was a real honour for me, I'd love to be the captain of England, who wouldn't?
"It's not going to be the be all and end all, it won't make or break my career or make me lose sleep at night.
"I'm still going to have the same thoughts and apply myself the same way regardless of who is being picked as captain.
"I want to win things and we need eleven captains out there not just the one."

All eyes were on Rio Ferdinand and his huge shiner today.
The Man Utd star's black eye was the big talking point as he and his team-mates flew out of Manchester airport for their Champions League clash with Roma tomorrow night.
And mystery surrounds how he got it, with his fellow players insisting they knew nothing about it until this morning.
Something you want to tell us, Rio?
