Park says it’s time for new challenge

Park Ji-sung admits it was a tough decision to leave Manchester United after joining QPR — but says it is time for a “new challenge”.

The 31-year-old South Korea international yesterday brought his successful seven-year spell at Old Trafford to an end by joining Rangers for an undisclosed fee believed to be upwards of £2 million.

Park, signed by Alex Ferguson from PSV Eindhoven in 2005, made 203 appearances for United, scoring 27 goals and winning four Premier League titles, three League Cups and the Champions League in 2008.
