Sweden defender Olof Mellberg is set to retire from international football after this summer's European Championships.
The former Aston Villa centre-back will bring an end to an illustrious 112-game international career after competing in the tournament.
The 34-year-old now plies his trade with Greek club Olympiakos and has made 35 appearances for club and country this season.
He told Swedish broadcaster
SVT that the tournament will "definitely be my last" major championship, having made his debut in 2000.
Sweden are in Group D along with England, Ukraine and France and will be led by Erik Hamrén.
It will be Mellberg's sixth major competition, having featured in Euro 2000, Euro 2004 and 2008 as well as World Cup 2002 and 2006.
