Retirement

Apologies if this issue has already been raised but has anyone else noticed players retiring at pretty young ages?

Seems to be guys getting released from their club at 30, who then go on to retire and coach in a relatively short space of time...Even if they still have decent skill attributes!

I could understand if it was a pretty gash player who couldn't get another club, but on my saves there's a lot of decent players retiring a bit too young!

If they dont find a club for a year for example then why not retire and seek a new career. if they in team to get them to stay on they need games

I've seen players retire in their early twenties for that reason [stated above by evil-muffin] alone, quality players as well.

i did see a 19 year old retire the other day, he was from middle east and had terrible stats so i assume nobody wanted him

As in real life, youngsters can become disillusioned and quit football early on.
