Christian Fuchs
39-Year-Old
Free Agent
Retires from football
Fuchs announced Thursday that he is retiring from soccer.
ANALYSIS
Fuchs is ending a 20-year career that saw him make almost 600 total appearances in Austria, Germany, England and most recently in the United States with MLS expansion club Charlotte FC. The 36-year-old left-back also earned 78 caps with the Austrian National Team and competed in two European Championships, but the high point of his career probably came in Leicester City's historic Premier League title run in 2015/16.
