Aaron Mooy quits football as Celtic and Australia star calls time on career with immediate effect

Celtic star Aaron Mooy has called time on his football career at the age of 32.

The midfielder - who earned 57 caps for Australia - is walking away from the sport amid weeks of rumours surrounding his future. Mooy proved an inspired signing under Ange Postecoglou with his form after the World Cup was a key factor en route to a second consecutive Premiership title. But Mooy is calling it quits after a career which included stints with St Mirren, Huddersfield and Brighton.

Mooy spoke about his decision to walk away and appears content with his call. He said: "While it feels really sad to be leaving the game, I just feel the time is right for me. 'I have been so fortunate to enjoy such a great career across the last 15 years, creating some fantastic memories."
