Later Career
Having played 50 matches for Arsenal in five years, Caesar left the Gunners in June 1991 on a free transfer (having previously been on loan to Queens Park Rangers for several months). He then embarked on a journeyman's career, playing for Cambridge United, Bristol City, Airdrieonians and Colchester United.
While at Colchester United, Caesar enjoyed something of a renaissance. After a string of poor performances for the club, his form - particularly his reading of the game - improved significantly, and he contributed a run of composed appearances in central defence in the 1994/95 season that won over many fans at Layer Road. He then played at non-league level at Dagenham where he was popular thanks to his "nice bloke" personality.
Caesar finished his career in Hong Kong. Since his retirement in 2001, he has played in several "Football Masters" tournaments in East Asia, alongside many other fellow ex-professionals. He now splits his time between Hong Kong, where he works in the finance industry, and Essex in his native England.

Famous quotes containing the word career:
“John Brown’s career for the last six weeks of his life was meteor-like, flashing through the darkness in which we live. I know of nothing so miraculous in our history.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“I doubt that I would have taken so many leaps in my own writing or been as clear about my feminist and political commitments if I had not been anointed as early as I was. Some major form of recognition seems to have to mark a woman’s career for her to be able to go out on a limb without having her credentials questioned.”
—Ruth Behar (b. 1956)
