On Friday morning, Theo Walcott announced his retirement from football.

After making his Three Lions debut at the age of just 17 years and 75 days, the 47-time England international is still the team’s youngest-ever player.
When he was 16 years old, Walcott made his debut for Southampton. Shortly after, he joined Arsenal, where he spent 12 years scoring over 100 goals and won two FA Cups.

He continued to play for Southampton and Everton before deciding to call it quits at the age of 34.
