Former Thai Star Suchao Retires to Launch Football Academy
Former Thai footballer Suchao Nuchnum, a 25-time domestic champion, retires at 43 to establish the Kob Suchao Academy in Kanchanaburi and develop young talent through school football programs.
Suchao Nuchnum, 43, a former Thai national footballer, has officially confirmed his retirement from professional football after achieving considerable success, including 25 domestic championships. He revealed that he is now focusing on establishing the Kob Suchao Academy to develop young footballers in Kanchanaburi province. In addition, he will establish a football team at Wisutthirangsi School, the province's first secondary school to do so.
The former player, known as "Prince Frog," also indicated that he may join Thailand's youth national team coaching staff in the future. Although several clubs from Thai League 1, 2, and 3 have approached him to continue playing, he decided that retiring and dedicating himself fully to football academy development would be a better choice.
