Jonny Evans Retires From International Football At 36
Jonny Evans has announced his retirement from international football.
The Manchester United defender appeared 107 times for Northern Ireland after making his debut in 2006.
His final appearance for his country was in June against Spain, the same side against which he made his international bow.
The 36-year-old's major international highlight was helping Northern Ireland reach the knockout rounds of EURO 2016.
“After much thought and consideration and after 18 years, I feel like now is the right time to retire from international football,” Evans said in a statement.
“From my debut in 2006 when we defeated Spain to my last game in June 2024, it has been a privilege.
“Putting on the green shirt 107 times and representing the people of Northern Ireland has been my biggest honour. You, the fans, are simply the greatest in the world. I have been so proud to represent each and every one of you on the pitch.”
