The 27-year-old Ospreys centre hasn’t played since December 2017, when he was injured in an aerial collision with Steff Evans during a game against Scarlets.
It was the third such incident to affect John that year, leading to his decision to take a 12-month hiatus.
The former Wales U20 international announced this afternoon that he won’t be returning to rugby, as he continues with his new role as a personal trainer in London.
“It’s taken so long for me to recover, after thinking about it long and hard, the best decision for me, the only one really, was to retire,” said John.
“Rugby has been my life but I realise that my long-term health is more important so, in the end, my decision was an easy one, particularly having spent time outside of the game and recognising there is life away from the rugby pitch.
