Marc Albrighton wants to become a Galactico.

But Leicester City needn’t fear the winger is set to leave King Power Stadium for the famous Galacticos of Real Madrid, but instead he hopes one day to turn out for his mates’ team in the Tamworth Sunday League.

Albrighton has just turned 29 and still has plenty of years left in him in the professional ranks, but his love for the game has not diminished over the years and he plans to play on long after retirement.

Albrighton says because he joined the academy at Aston Villa at such a young age he never had the chance to play with his school friends, but one day he hoped he will.

“I’m 29 and I’ll play until I’m 59, I don’t need a rest,” said Albrighton.

“I enjoy playing football. I started playing very early so I’ve never really had chance to play with my friends.

“I got taken away from playing with my friends when I signed for Villa when I was eight-years old so I’ve never had that chance to play with my mates.

“My mates play for Galacticos - maybe one day, that over-35 league is calling my name!”

Before he heads off to the playing fields of Tamworth, Albrighton and City have targeted lifting more silverware and with City now in the quarter finals of the Carabao Cup for the second consecutive year, Albrighton believes they have a good chance.

“We want to go as far as possible in the cups as well as doing well in the league,” he said.

“There’s no mentality here of ‘oh it’s just a cup, we’ll concentrate on the league’.

“There’s no mentality of that. We want to do well in every competition that we play in.”
