Darts player, Luke Littler, sparks controversy with cryptic social media message, suggesting potential retirement.
In a surprising turn of events, 18-year-old darts sensation Luke Littler, known for his remarkable achievements including a debut in the Premier League at 17, a nine-darter on television, and winning the World Championships at 18, has announced a shift in focus. On September 18, Littler posted a video on his Instagram with 1.9 million followers, stating he was taking a step back from darts.
The announcement, however, was met with confusion as the following day it was confirmed that Luke Littler is not retiring from darts. Instead, it appears that Littler is channeling his energy into a new passion – gaming.
In a promotional video for EA Sports FC 26, Littler can be seen in a retirement home with other fictional EA FC characters. He teams up with fellow creators Bateson87, AngryGinge (played by Morgan Burtwistle), and ShaunaGames while playing EA SPORTS FC 26 on Xbox. Littler's words in the video are: 'Take time to do the things you love.'
Littler's decision to take a step back from darts was not an easy one. He has earned over a million pounds from darts and sponsorship deals, and his successful career in the world of darts has made him an 18-year-old sensation. Yet, Littler, who has not yet passed his driving test and tends to spend his money on virtual gaming instead, seems to have found joy in his new gaming pursuit.
His travel Xbox, a suitcase with a screen, controllers, and a wireless phone, is a testament to his dedication to gaming. Littler takes his gaming equipment on the road with him, making gaming a constant companion in his life.
The purpose of the video was to promote the launch of EA Sports FC 26. Littler's final comment in the video suggested that his announcement was a publicity stunt, adding an element of intrigue to the video.
Despite the confusion, Littler has thanked his fans for their support over the last two years. As of now, there has been no announcement about Luke Littler's return to darts competitions. However, one thing is certain – Luke Littler's love for gaming is here to stay.
