But Caulker has set his sights on finding his next job with a view to still playing but also becoming a coach.

Caulker posted on the job-hunting website: “LinkedIn family, please work your magic…

“I am looking for a new team ahead of the 2024/25 season. Preferable as a coach, but I am still open to playing.

“Whilst I am looking for a suitable option, I am keeping myself busy with 1-2-1 coaching, mentoring and public speaking.”

Caulker’s message was accompanied with a picture of the defender shaking hands with former Three Lions boss Roy Hodgson.

He scored on his international debut – his one and only England appearance – in a 4-2 friendly defeat to Sweden in November 2012.

Caulker, who played for several EFL clubs including Bristol City, Swansea and Southampton and also represented Great Britain at the 2012 Olympics, later switched allegiances and played 13 times for Sierra Leone.

He last played in the UK for League One Wigan when they were in the Championship in 2023.
