Townsend Marks One Year in Thai League as 'Best Decision'
English striker Andros Townsend, now 35, marked one year since joining Thailand's top league, calling his move from Turkey to Phlan Kan FC one of the best decisions of his life.
Andros Townsend, an English striker and player for PT Prachuap FC in Thailand's top football league, posted a message marking one year since his decision to play in Thailand, thanking his former club Phlan Kan FC.
The 35-year-old veteran posted on Instagram about his decision to relocate to Thai football, expressing gratitude to his former team.
In his post, Townsend wrote: "A year ago today, despite still having one year left on my contract with a Turkish team, I decided to do something completely different by moving to play for Phlan Kan FC in Thailand. To be honest, this has been one of the best decisions of my life. A new continent, a new culture, amazing people, a healthier lifestyle, and memories with my children that will stay with us forever. Many times we choose to stay in our comfort zone because it's familiar, but this time I was so glad to step outside that zone and try something completely different. Thank you to everyone in Kanchanaburi Province for making this journey so special for me. Kanchanaburi will always have a special place in my heart. And now I'm already looking forward to the next adventure."
