Football’s Strongest Player Adebayo Akinfewa Considering WWE After Retirement

Football league strongman Adebayo Akinfenwa is locked in talks to become a WWE superstar.

The Wycombe striker, 38, is ready to hang up his boots after one more season as he plots his next venture.

The hugely-popular forward scored his first ever Championship goal on Wednesday night to keep his club’s unlikely survival bid alive.

His career has taken him to 13 different clubs in 20 years but the so-called strongest man in the game is soon to leave it all behind.

Speaking on the UMM Youtube channel, he said: “I don’t want to be a manager, I don’t want to be a coach.

“I’ve given two decades to football. I’m 39 next month. I’m at the transitional stage.

“Exclusive out here, I think I’m going to play on one more year. Then look, you know what, it’s funny.

“We’re talking to a couple of producers in LA, there’s a couple of movie projects.

“Then also, there are also talks with WWE. I reckon I’d be a good wrestler.

“I’ve always been able to live my life where nobody has put me in a box, so that’s how it is, I’m excited for the future.”
