So under doctors orders Muamba has to retire. I say good luck to him and send him all the best from us. Thankful for every day.

    is a miracle that he had people around him that had the equipment, quick thinking and skill to save his life. This news I think we were all waiting for. Best of luck to him in whatever he does next.

    A miracle indeed. Hopefully he made enough money in his short career to tide him over for a while whilst he looks. I wonder what will come next for him.

    Wouldn't be surprised if he tried his arm at being a pundit halfway through the season.

    Best of luck to him. Hope he can keep smiling and not dwell on his lost career - focus on a life won.

    Best wishes, very sad to see a young promising player retire but in comparison to what could have been, living and leading a relatively normally life with his family is by far the most important thing to take out of this horrible event.

    Can only second this. Maybe the experience will help him find something related that he will be good at.

    Unfortunate for the guy but far better than a doc saying he will be able to play again only for the heart to give out again.... can't imagine anyone going through that twice. Good luck Fabrice whatever you go on to do.

    I wouldn't be surprised to see him become some sort of community figure in the local area, working with children/disabled in relation to Football on behalf of Bolton/England.

    A small consolation for having to give up doing something he obviously loved doing, but yeah.

    He'll appreciate his life whichever road it takes so wish him all the best for the future.

    Sad for him but this could so easily have been a RIP thread.

    Congrats on the decision. I'm sure his family would've dreaded every minute and tackle if he'd have carried on playing.
