I have gone through multiple surgeries, had different procedures and received multiple opinions from specialists. After careful consideration, I have made the decision to retire from professional football. Although this was an extremely tough decision, I am confident this is the right one. I gave everything into trying to return to play but it has gotten to the point where prioritising my physical and mental health is more important. I want to thank my family, friends and Norwich City for supporting through this tough time. Despite this being a major setback in my life, I can walk away with a smile knowing I gave everything into the game and look forward to whatever exciting opportunities come my way. It can’t rain forever, better days are coming.”
