What's the earliest retirement you've seen?

loads of youth players retire if they are not offered a contract after sitting without a club for a couple of years.
 
Stephen Ireland retired from international football aged 23 or something.
 
So he has. As a Villa fan, I'm ashamed I didn't know that.
 
In my Toronto Fc save there was a guy named Zach Herold out for 2 years at the start of the game (don't remember the exact problem), but ended retiring during the first season aged 18. Sadly that's more or less what happened to him IRL.
 
i have had an 18 year old retire on FM10 because i released him and he couldnt find a new club
