Ramsey Retires from Professional Football

Wales captain and former Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey has retired from professional football at age 35, with plans to pursue a coaching career.

The 35-year-old Ramsey, who had been without a club since leaving Mexican side Pumas UNAM last year, retires as one of Wales' greatest players, scoring 21 goals in 86 appearances and representing his country at three major tournaments.

Ramsey, who started his career at Cardiff City before an 11-year stint at Arsenal where he won three FA Cups, played a key role in Wales' historic run to the Euro 2016 semi-finals and represented the nation at Euro 2020 and the 2022 World Cup.
