Robinson Confirms Retirement After Leaving Clarets
Robinson – capped 41 times by his country - made three top-flight starts for the Clarets last season to take his total number of club appearances to 498 in a prolific career which also included spells with Leeds United, Tottenham Hotspur and Blackburn Rovers.
Robinson, 37, said: “Unfortunately, my back problem returned towards the end of last season and has prevented me being ready for the start of the new season. Taking everything into consideration I've decided to announce my retirement.
Burnley boss Dyche, who signed Robinson in January, 2016 after he had spent a few months out of the game, said: “Paul played a big part in what we have achieved over the past couple of seasons – literally at times last season – and always as an important member of the group.
“He made a big contribution during his time at Burnley and we would all like to wish him well in his next venture, as well as making sure that he will always welcome back at Turf Moor.”
