After being released from his contract at Huddersfield Town, 35-year-old David Unsworth has decided that the time is right to bring down the curtain on his career.
Unsworth, who was a hard-battling, no-nonsense defender, will be best remembered for his time at Everton, whom he played for from 1991-2004 interrupted by a brief spell at West Ham United.
He also suited up for Portsmouth, Ipswich Town, Sheffield United, Wigan Atheltic, Burnley and most recently Huddersfield during his 18-year career, but in confirming his retirement he left no doubt as to which club remains closest to his heart.
“I’ve had a great time but it’s the right time now for me to concentrate on something else,” Unsworth told Everton’s official website.
“I am doing my coaching badges and my intention is to move into that side of the game. I’m thoroughly enjoying the coaching side and am keen to really get started, which is the main reason for hanging my boots up.
“I played for some great teams alongside some great players but my best times were at Everton. I absolutely love the club and the fans and I would love to return again one day.”
