News of former players

Rotherham United defender and former Addick Scott Minto has been forced to hang up his boots because of a long-standing Achilles injury. The 34-year-old missed the majority of last season because of the problem and he has decided to call it a day after 17 seasons in the game. Minto began his career in 1989 at Charlton before moving to Chelsea five years later.

Queen's Park Rangers have put a price tag of £3m on former Charlton defender Danny Shittu. Watford, Leeds and West Brom are said to be interested in the brickhouse like player. Unfortunately, there is probably no selling on clause. One that got away?
