Former Norwich City and Finland striker Teemu Pukki has announced his retirement from football at the age of 36.
Pukki, who quit international duty last year, is Finland's men's all-time top scorer with 43 goals in 133 matches, while his number of caps is the country's second highest.
He scored 88 goals in 210 appearances for Norwich between 2018 and 2023, helping the Canaries twice win promotion to the Premier League.
"I've gained a lot more from football than I ever dreamed of when I was a little boy." Pukki wrote on Instagram.
"I've seen the world and gained experience because of football and I don't think I could have gotten anything like football anywhere else.
"It hasn't always been fun or I haven't been able to enjoy it, but the love for football has remained - always. Big thanks to the great clubs and their fans."
He has played for HJK Helsinki in his homeland since 2025 and will retire following the conclusion of the Veikkausliiga season on 8 November.
Pukki also counts Schalke, Brondby and Minnesota United among his former clubs, while he also scored nine goals in 38 appearances for Celtic between 2013 and 2015.
Pukki party memories will live on - analysis
There was a time when if you told a stranger you were a Norwich fan they would reply with, "Jeremy Goss!" In the last few years that has been replaced with, "Teemu Pukki!"
The unassuming Finn arrived on a free transfer in the summer of 2018 to very little fanfare. Pukki's previous foray into British football had been with Celtic and their supporters were quick to tell Norwich fans that their new acquisition wasn't up to much.
They could not have been more wrong.
With the help of one Emi Buendia teeing him up, Pukki cemented himself as an all-time Norwich great, winning two Championship titles, two player of the season awards and sits fourth among the club's all-time leading scorers.
That partnership with Buendia was the stuff of dreams for Norwich supporters and was described as "magical" by head coach Daniel Farke.
Thank you, Teemu. You will always be welcome to throw a 'Pukki Party' in Norfolk.
