Sam McQueen (Retires)

[BFC1997]

Reported as a Brentford transfer target 2-3 years ago, Southampton left back Sam McQueen has retired aged 26 as a result of complications to an ACL injury.

Goes to show just how much of a toll long-term injuries can have on players and how well we have done to see Sergi bounce back in the way he has, and the likes of Hogan before him. Can easily go the other way.

That's a tough watch. They have a privileged life, but they're human after all... Wish him well for his future

Agreed. And it’s also why we can never really complain when players take big money moves for improved wages. Take this case. An innocuous challenge results in an ACL injury. Bad luck follows with repeat infections and before you know it, it’s game over.

Good luck to him for the future.

Excellent in The Great Escape.
