Musselwhite, 40, will finally hang up his gloves as manager of the Conference North side Gateshead after this season.

He has been playing full-time for the north-east side after joining them from Harrogate Town in January 2008.

"I have had a great career with lots of highs and thoroughly enjoyed myself," he told the Evening Chronicle.

"However time catches up with everyone and I have to build up my coaching career."

Musselwhite had two spells at Glanford Park, and also played for Port Vale and Hull City.
