Veteran striker Kei Kamara has decided to hang up his boots after a legendary career in Major League Soccer.
After making his MLS debut in 2006, the 41-year-old went on to become a fixture in the league, spending 18 seasons in Major League Soccer.

In that time, Kamara scored 147 MLS goals, the second-most in league history behind Chris Wondolowski (173).

Kamara played for a record 12 different MLS clubs, while also spending brief stints abroad.
“I never played for just one crest,” he said in a video announcing his retirement.
