Chris Brunt: Northern Ireland and West Brom legend retires from football

Former Northern Ireland and West Brom midfielder Chris Brunt has announced his retirement from football.

The 36-year-old played 421 games for West Brom, scoring 48 goals and featuring in a club-record 269 Premier League fixtures.

Brunt, who also played as a left back, retired from international duty in 2018 after winning 65 caps.

"I feel so privileged to have enjoyed the career I have had," said Brunt.

"As a young boy growing up in Belfast it was always my dream to be a professional football player and I'm so grateful I've been able to live out that dream for the best part of 20 years.
