    "John Arne Riise, Norway’s most capped player, has announced his international retirement.

    The 32-year-old Fulham defender has decided to bring the curtain down after making a record 110 appearances during a 13-year career with his country.

    Riise said in a press release: “After considering this for a long time I’ve decided to opt out of future national team games for Norway.

    “The decision was taken in consultation with those closest to me, but it has been entirely my own.

    “The tough side of the decision is obvious: I’ve loved every second I’ve played in the Norway shirt. The good side of the decision is that it feels right.”

    Riise hopes hanging up his international boots will help prolong his playing career at club level."
