Republic of Ireland defender Louise Quinn has announced her retirement from the game.
The 34-year-old accumulated 121 international caps, making her debut in a friendly against Poland in February 2008.
Quinn scored 16 senior international goals, 15 of which were headers, and played every minute of her country’s historic first appearance at the 2023 Women’s World Cup.
Her club career included spells in England with Notts County, Arsenal and Birmingham City, as well as a season in Italy with Fiorentina.
During her time at Arsenal, the county Wicklow native won the Women’s Super League and the FA Women’s League Cup.
She is currently on the books of Birmingham but has not played since suffering a hip injury last October.
She follows fellow Republic internationals Diane Caldwell, Niamh Fahey and Julie-Ann Russell, who confirmed their retirements over recent months.
