Former Spurs Defender Jan Vertonghen To Hang Up His Boots At End Of Season
Former Spurs: Belgian record international and captain of RSC Anderlecht, Jan Vetonghen, is ready to hang up his boots. The former Tottenham Hotspur defender has decided to retire as a professional football player at the end of the current season.
Vertonghen has been playing at the top of European football for over 18 years, appearing in 220 matches for Ajax. He played eight years and 315 matches for Tottenham, two seasons with Benfica, and then in 2022, he made his final move to RSC Anderlecht.
“In recent weeks, it has become clear to me that these will be my last games. This is by no means an easy decision, but it is the right one. I have noticed that it is becoming more and more difficult to prepare myself physically for training sessions and matches, and to show myself as the player I want to be. Not only towards the fans and my fellow players, but also towards myself. That is why I will be stopping after this season," Vetonghen explained.
