The Kansas City Comets announced on Friday that longtime Comets defender Stefan Stokic has retired from playing professional indoor soccer, but will remain with the team as an assistant coach.
This news comes just days after longtime Comet midfielder Lucas Rodriguez announced his retirement.
The Comets said the ageless wonder was planning on playing this season, but was forced into early retirement after tearing ACL in a recent practice.
“I could have rehabbed and come back next year, but I have a family now, so retirement seemed like the best choice for them and me,” said Stokic via press release.
