Gesar Dorji most recently the Captain of the national team has retired from professional football and signed on to become the Manager of Bhutan his home country. Dorji aged 35, was the first ever professional footballer in Bhutanese history he is half American and lived in the States for half his life. He played in MLS (Major League Soccer) for D.C. United as an attacking midfielder. He was forced to retire due to persistent injuries to his knees. Bhutan which has been traditionally known as a soccer minow but Dorji has the task of bringing his native land to new footballing heights.
