Though in classic style, he has been injured for the last two months and missed most of last season for the same reason, so ‘still playing’ is contentious.

Salomon Rondon is still at it at Pachuca, though.

The one that surprised me recently was Yannick Bolasie, who is in Brazil, as is Joel Campbell, who is only 32 but has seemed like a former player for about ten years.

i think his build kinda always made him seem about 26 tbf

"Tom Huddlestone plays for Man Utd" is a good weird 2023 fact imo

Retired 2 July 2024.
