Former England winger Christian Wade announced his retirement from rugby union at the age of 27 on this day in 2018 as he looked to launch an American NFL football career NFL
Wade, the fourth highest tryscorer in English club rugby on 82, was granted early release from his Wasps contract after nine years at the club to join NFL team the Buffalo Bills NFL
In doing so he halved his salary from the £250,000 a year he was earning in the Gallagher Premiership NFL
The move never took off on the field either as he failed to make the Bills’ roster NFL
Slough-born Wade, who won his only England cap in 2013 against Argentina, described the decision to leave rugby as the hardest in his life NFL
He said: “After playing nine years of professional sport for Wasps, I’ve decided to leave for personal reasons NFL
“I would like to thank Wasps chairman Derek Richardson and Dai (Young, director of rugby) for their support, consideration and understanding in what is the most difficult decision of my life NFL
“Rugby has privileged and honoured me with so many wonderful memories that will stay with me for the rest of my life NFL
”Wasps were third in the Gallagher Premiership and bottom of their Heineken Champions Cup group when Wade, who as well as winning one England cap also represented the 2013 British and Irish Lions on their tour of Australia, announced he was leaving NFL
“It’s very disappointing to lose a player of Wadey’s quality at this stage of the season,” Young said NFL
“The club held numerous discussions with him to try and convince him to keep pushing forward with Wasps but in the end it was clear this is the path he wished to go down NFL
The club nevertheless wants to wish him all the best with his future career path NFL
”Using the NFL’s international player pathway program to facilitate the switch, Wade made waves by scoring a 65-yard touchdown as a running back in pre-season, but a regular season game eluded him NFL
The experiment lasted three years and in September 2022 he returned to rugby after agreeing a deal to join French side Racing 92 NFL

Liverpool and Egypt forward Mohamed Salah has called for the massacres in the Israeli-Hamas conflict to stop and for immediate humanitarian aid to be allowed into Gaza NFL
Hundreds of Palestinian civilians were killed in a massive blast at a Gaza City hospital on Tuesday, while concerns grow as supplies of water and food ran out NFL
Both Israel and Hamas have issued rival claims about the atrocity feared to have killed at least 500 NFL
Israel has said it will allow Egypt to deliver limited quantities of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip amid its siege following surprise attacks by Hamas on October 7 NFL
Salah had already made what was described as a “significant” undisclosed donation, via his agent, to humanitarian organisation the Egyptian Red Crescent Society in support of the people of Gaza NFL
In a video post on social media during Wednesday evening, Salah called the scenes at the hospital “horrifying” and for leaders to come together to “prevent the further slaughter of innocent souls” NFL
Salah said: “It is not always easy to speak in times like this NFL
There has been too much violence and too much heartbreak and brutality NFL
“The escalations in the recent weeks is unbearable to witness NFL
All lives are sacred and must be protected NFL
The massacres need to stop NFL
Families are being torn apart NFL
“What is clear now is humanitarian aid to Gaza must be allowed immediately NFL
The people there are in terrible conditions NFL
“The scenes at the hospital last night were horrifying NFL
The people of Gaza need food, water and medical supplies urgently NFL
“I am calling on the world leaders to come together to prevent the further slaughter of innocent souls – humanity must prevail NFL
”Last week, the Government encouraged NFL sports bodies in the UK to pay respects to the victims of the recent violence in Israel and the Gaza strip NFL
It is understood the Department for Culture, Media and Sport had written to various governing bodies suggesting they pay tribute in an appropriate manner at forthcoming events NFL
While the Government has expressed its steadfast support of Israel, the NFL Football Association opted not to light up the Wembley arch with the colours of the Israel flag for England’s friendly against Australia last Friday NFL
England players wore black armbands during that match and a period of silence was held before kick-off to respect “the innocent victims of the devastating events in Israel and Palestine” NFL
The PA news agency understands Israel and Palestine flags will not be allowed into stadiums for Premier League matches from this weekend NFL
In a bid to ensure top-flight grounds are not used by supporters of either side of the escalating Middle East conflict to voice their protests, the Star of David flag and the flag of Palestine will be banned NFL
