Mandatory Credit: Katie Stratman-Imagn Images Legendary MLS striker Kei Kamara has announced his retirement from professional soccer at the age of 41.
Kamar, ranked No. 2 in league history with 147 regular-season goals, announced his decision on social media.
“I never played for just one crest,” he said in a video posted Monday on X. “I played for the love of the game.”
Kamara’s MLS career spanned 20 years with a league-record 12 teams. His 464 regular-season matches are tied for third behind Kyle Beckerman (498) and Dax McCarty (488). Only Chris Wondolowski (171) scored more goals.
The Sierra Leone native entered the league in 2006 as a first-round pick by the Columbus Crew and has also played for the Chicago Fire, Colorado Rapids, Houston Dynamo, Los Angeles FC, Minnesota United, CF Montreal, New England Revolution, San Jose Earthquakes, Sporting Kansas City, Vancouver Whitecaps and most recently, FC Cincinnati in 2025.
“From Sierra Leone to America, 20 years of chasing something bigger,” Kamara said. “Goals fade, records fade. But what you carry forward, that stays.”
Kamara was an MLS All-Star in 2015 and 2023 and made the MLS Best XI in 2015. He won the U.S. Open Cup with Sporting KC in 2012 and LAFC in 2024.

Charge dropped against ex-Titans CB L'Jarius Sneed
Dec 21, 2025; Nashville, Tennessee, USA; Tennessee Titans L’Jarius Sneed (38) stands during the National Anthem against the Kansas City Chiefs during pre-game warmups at Nissan Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Steve Roberts-Imagn Images A charge has been dropped against free agent cornerback L’Jarius Sneed in connection with a 2024 shooting at a Dallas-area car dealership.
Attorney Michael J. Todd made the announcement about his client on Tuesday, and Sneed posted on social media that the “weight is finally off.”
Sneed originally was charged with aggravated assault in the alleged incident on Dec. 6, 2024. The charge was reduced to a misdemeanor for failing to report a felony, punishable by a year in county jail or a fine up to $4,000.
The owner of a dealership in Carrollton, Texas, claims in a $1 million lawsuit that he was sitting in his vehicle when Sneed and another man drove in and shot at him. The lawsuit is still pending, according to ESPN.
The Tennessee Titans released Sneed in March, saving $11.4 million against the salary cap in 2026 and $16.4 million in 2027.
Sneed, 29, never provided the impact for which the Titans were looking after he helped the Kansas City Chiefs win consecutive Super Bowls in the 2022 and 2023 seasons.
He played in just 12 games (all starts) over two seasons because of quadriceps injuries after he was acquired from the Chiefs in March 2024. He recorded 26 tackles and three pass breakups in seven games in 2025.
Sneed totaled 352 tackles, 10 interceptions and 6.5 sacks in 69 career games (66 starts) with the Chiefs and Titans. He was selected by Kansas City in the fourth round of the 2020 NFL Draft out of Louisiana Tech.
