Sheffield Wednesday are set to announce the retirement of Jeremy Helan, who plans to quit football at the age of 24 in order to focus on religion.

BBC Radio Sheffield understands the club will confirm that winger Helan, a devout Muslim, is leaving Hillsborough.

The Frenchman has made one appearance for Wednesday this season and 144 in total since arriving from Manchester City in 2012, initially on loan.

He spent two months on loan at Wolves last season.

Helan has made three appearances for France Under-19s.

Aren't you being rather presumptuous? It's his football career he's leaving behind and following his religious vocation instead. I'm sure there is no shortage of folk in this godless materialistic trough of a society pulling their faces and calling him a freak, but maybe their 'normality' is something he doesn't rate .

To each his own. I don't know him. But radical Islam is certainly a nutter move if that's what he's into.

Regardless I give absolutely zero fucks about him or what he does with his life. And I'm not judging. I just don't care.

Cheers

That's the spirit of the age - right there. Bursting with respect for fellow human beings trying to do good in the world.

I would wager a considerable bet at long odds that he doesn't give two flying fucks about you or anybody else on here.

No. He's just an idiot and you constantly look for new ways to get offended.

He can study religion anytime he wants right here in England or any other country with normal human rights (while continuing to make mega money playing football). But instead he has chosen to go to Saudi Arabia, where women can't go out in public without male supervision or ever show their skin.

There are mosques in the UK/Europe, no?
