"I’m also going to try to open a soccer academy because I want to try and reach kids, but after 23 years as a professional, I’m done. Only time will judge if I did well or well not, but I feel like I did everything in every game I played.” 

The 37-year-old made a total of 93 appearances for the Galaxy, and scored 62 goals. In 2002, his most successful year with the Stateside club, he won the MLS Cup and Supporters' Shield.
