San Jose Earthquakes Nick Lima has retired from professional soccer after nine MLS seasons.
Lima, 31, recorded nine goals and 15 assists in 231 MLS matches (189 starts) with the Quakes (2017-20, 2025), Austin FC (2021-23) and the New England Revolution (2024).
'I am grateful for the opportunity to play professional soccer and go out on my terms,' Lima said. 'First, I want to thank all my teammates, coaches, staff, fans, community and everyone who supported me along the way to get to this point.
'I also want to thank all the clubs I've played for, especially the San Jose Earthquakes, where I began and will now finish my career.'
A California native, Lima also earned nine caps with the United States men's national team.
'Nick enjoyed a very good career in MLS and has been an outstanding player and professional with the Earthquakes,' San Jose sporting director and head coach Bruce Arena said. 'I want to thank him for his outstanding service to our club and wish him the very best in his future endeavors.'
