Official: Aguero withdrew with tears in his eyes

End of season…

In the midst of emotion, Sergio Aguero has announced that he is retiring from active duty.

The Argentine informed about his decision to stop playing football at the age of 33, due cardiac arrhythmia.

The experienced striker went to Barcelona just in the summer but managed to play just five times, scoring one goal.

As he said, “I’m here to let you know that I have decided to stop playing ball. It is a very difficult time for me. First of all is my health, you know why I made this decision.

I was in the hands of good doctors who advised me the best for me. I made the decision ten days ago. I did my best to see if there was a chance to continue, but there were not many.

I want to thank those who helped me evolve. I leave with my heads held high, happy. I do not know what awaits me for the rest of my life, but I know I have many people who care about me.

I also thank the journalists who came, those who treated me correctly but also those who did not. I keep many good things, thank you all “.

After the excited Aguero, the president of Barça spoke, Joan Laporta, who said the following words: “I am by your side. We had the desire to see you play in Barcelona, ​​but you made the right decision. You have our support, you have been a world-famous player, a goal scorer. “I wish you had come here earlier, you deserve the best.”

They followed questions from journalists to Aguero, who stated, among other things:

Once I got here, I realized that the fans are passionate. He was seen in the streets, he surprised me. It was a gift for me to be here, but it all happens for a reason.

I feel good now. The first two weeks were obviously difficult. When the doctors took me to tell me it was final, it took me a few days.

Fortunately it happened now and not earlier, I’m proud of my career.

You always want to win more and more when you play football, but I’m happy with what I have achieved.

From moments of my career, I remember a very nice goal I scored with Independiente at the age of 17, against Racing. After the Europa League with Atletico, the goal with Manchester City against KPR that gave us the championship. There were many wonderful moments.

Lastly, the Copa America with Argentina.

“I have decided to stop playing football.”
