Centre-back Conor Coady has announced his retirement at the age of 33. Coming through the Liverpool academy, the Englishman played 503 games for eight clubs, but his best spell came at Wolves: 317 appearances, the captaincy, two seventh-place finishes in the Premier League and the Europa League quarter-finals.

According to BBC Sport, Coady had been without a club since leaving Wrexham in September and is already linked with a coaching career, specifically the assistant head coach role at League One side Barnsley. With ten England caps to his name, he closes his playing career after spells at Everton, Leicester and Charlton.
