Posting on Instagram, he said (translated): “The time has come to hang the boots, not for pleasure.
I had never thought what it would be like to hang my boots definitively, and unwittingly I had to do it. ‘You will not be able to play football again’ .. very hard words, but as I told my team, with perseverance and effort, I will change those words.

“Proud to belong to this great team of people, thanks for this gesture. To thank all the (officials) of the 5 clubs where I have been, the coaches and different technical bodies.”
