Aug 18 (Reuters) - Theo Walcott has retired from soccer at the age of 34, the former England and Arsenal forward announced on Friday. A product of Southampton's academy, Walcott joined Arsenal at the age of 16 in 2006 and scored 108 goals in 397 appearances. Walcott, who has been capped 47 times, joined Everton in 2018 before returning to Southampton on loan in the 2020–21 season and making the move permanent. The support shown to me throughout this time has been incredible in every way imaginable, and I am truly grateful. Walcott became England's youngest-ever senior player at 17 when he played in a friendly victory over Hungary at Old Trafford in 2006.

LONDON, April 21 (Reuters) - Arsenal struck two late goals to rescue a point in a pulsating 3-3 home draw with bottom club Southampton but their Premier League title hopes suffered another blow on a night of frazzled nerves in north London on Friday.
