New England Revolution forward Taylor Twellman is expected to announce that concussion issues are forcing him to end his career.
The 30-year-old Twellman has scheduled a press conference Wednesday at Gillette Stadium with head coach Steve Nicol to announce that he will abandon his quest at a comeback.
The Minneapolis-born striker has suffered a number of concussions and has been sidelined for more than a year.
When he last played in June 2009, Twellman scored two goals against the New York Red Bulls to reach 101 in his eight-year career. He was the fifth player in MLS history to score 100 goals.
