About this listen
Eric Cantona retired from football at the age of 30. Ashleigh Barty left tennis as World Number One at the age of 25. And Nico Rosberg walked away from Fomula One just days after winning the 2016 World Championship. Jeremy Lin, though, announced the end of his playing career, 13 years after the rise of "Linsanity" when he had a great spell with the New York Knicks. But when is the right time sportsperson to call it a day?
John Bennett is joined by former Cameroon, Newcastle and Tottenham defender Sebastian Bassong and boxing expert, Steve Bunce. They discuss why it's important to go when your body tells you to. and why keeping going long after your peak may affect a sportsperson's legacy.
