Minto's last appearence for the club was at the beginning of December against Swindon Town where he came on as sub.
Talking to the official site, Minto said; "Last season turned out to be a poor one for me after I had felt really good in pre-season and the early games, I felt then that I had another couple of years left in me. But my Achilles got hold of me and I had to have a couple of operations."
"My last year or so has seen me blighted with injuries and when the specialist told me that my Achilles wouldn't hold up, I was half glad because I knew I couldn't show myself by playing at 100 per cent. So now's the time to call it a day and I will be up in this area for another year. I am starting a sports journalist course through the PFA."
Minto then paid tribute to the club, "I did want Rotherham United to be my last club so I am happy about that. I have loved my time at Rotherham, I can honestly say that in terms of enjoyment, it has been as good as at any time in my career."
"It's been a great set of lads, a great set up with no egos, everyone getting on well together and that's what football should be about."
