Dragons prop Jack Cosgrove has decided to retire from rugby due to injury the club have confirmed.
At only 25-years of age Cosgrove has been forced to retire early due to an eye injury that he sustained during a training session back in October.
Having only joined the Welsh outfit in the summer it is a big blow to Cosgrove and the club wished him all the best in a statement.
“Everyone at the Dragons wishes Jack every success in his future and he will continue to receive professional help and support from the region as he makes the transition from playing,” the statement read.
The player had been through specialist treatment and had medical advice which helped him come to his decision.
Cosgrove came through the Worcester Warriors academy in England before he moved on to Edinburgh in 2015. A move to Bristol in 2017 followed, where he won the Championship on his return to England, before a return to Worcester ahead of his final switch to Dragons.
