Tottenham Hotspur's injury-plagued defender Ledley King announced his retirement from the game on Thursday.
King, an elegant and assured centre back, has suffered with chronic knee problems which restricted his training and game time in recent seasons.
He made 323 first-team appearances since making his senior debut in 1999. He also won 21 caps for England. Spurs said King, 31, will remain at the club in an ambassador role.
'I have been here since I was a boy, I have always considered it my club and have always found it hard to imagine wearing the shirt of another team,' King told the Spurs website (www.tottenhamhotspur.com).
