Cook, 38, will still be hoping to win one more title with Essex before he packs his bat away for good.
According to the Daily Mail, the former England Test captain could announce the decision as early as Friday.
The batter will not be leaving cricket for good as he will continue to work in the pundit side of the sport.
Cook has already been working with Test Match Special on the BBC.
During his career, he twice won the Ashes against Australia as England captain and became the country’s record run-scorer.
