• World’s top international goal scorer says she’s retiring
• Sinclair retired from Canada women’s team last year

Canada’s Christine Sinclair, the world’s top international goal scorer among both women and men, said on Friday she will retire from professional soccer at the end of the 2024 NWSL season in November.

Sinclair, whose 190 international goals is the most among both men and women, retired from the Canadian team last December. She is currently in her 12th season with the NWSL’s Portland Thorns, who wrap up their regular season on 1 November and are currently sitting in a playoff spot.
