Former Newcastle United and Republic of Ireland defender
Stephen Carr has announced his retirement from
football.
The full back, 32, has been without a club since being released by
The Magpies at the end of last season, had been linked with a
return to the Premier League strugglers under Joe Kinnear, as well
as League One high-flyers Leicester City, but has now opted to call
time on a career that had failed to live up to its early
promise.
