Mikey Ambrose has hung up his cleats. The 29-year-old announced in a heartfelt Instagram post that he has retired from professional soccer.
Ambrose had 2 spells with Atlanta United: first from 2017-2019 and then from 2021-2022. During his 1st stint, he played 3 times while on loan with the Charleston Battery in 2017 and made 18 appearances with ATL UTD 2 in its inaugural season in 2018. He’ll be remembered for a pair of free-kick goals he scored against Toronto FC II that year.
After heading to Inter Miami CF in 2020, Ambrose returned to Atlanta for the final 2 seasons of his professional career, making 6 appearances with the 1st team and 17 with ATL UTD 2.
