Crocked Gavin Henson in retirement mystery

13 Jul 2009


There is speculation over Gavin Henson's future following a report that he has quit rugby.

The 27-year-old Wales centre was due back for pre-season training with Ospreys today but it is claimed he told club officials at the weekend he was now disillusioned with the sport.

Henson said in April he could retire after his Lions dream was wrecked by an ankle injury.

He said: "I'm pretty depressed about it - maybe I'm cursed. Thoughts of retiring run through my head. When I get knocked out with an injury, it is soul-destroying."
