Howard announces his retirement – an Everton legend hangs up his gloves

Former Everton and Manchester United goalkeeper Tim Howard has announced his retirement from professional football.

After an incredible 694 club games, Howard has decided to hang up his gloves for good.

Howard has been spending the latter stages of his career in the MLS with Colorado Rapids but has previously enjoyed spells at Everton and Manchester United.

Howard will go down as one of the all-time great Premier League goalkeepers.

He may not have been the biggest name of them all, but to enjoy a Premier League career that spans over 13 years tells you all you need to know about the quality of the player.

With over 400 Everton appearances under his belt, he also goes down as one of the club’s modern-day Premier League legends.

Ever-present in the Toffees side, he was one of the few shot-stoppers to score a Premier League goal.

Everton fans will look back on Howard’s career with fond memories and he should too, as he enjoys the next stage of his life.
