Michael leaves: “Thanks to those who participated in this important chapter of my career”

Soon, I will officially say goodbye to the Family, but I wanted to leave this message for all of you. I would like to sincerely thank everyone who participated in this important chapter of my career over the years.

To the President – Thank you for your trust and continuous support. To the Secretariat Department – Thank you for your help and organization at all times.

To the coaching staffs – I am grateful for all the guidance and development you have provided me over the years. To doctors and physiotherapists – thank you for taking care of me with such professionalism all these years that I have been here.

For my teammates – it was a pleasure to share the stadium with you. I will always have great moments of work and friendship with me. To all those who work in the background, such as nutritionists, chefs and equipment responsible, your effort is making the difference and is really appreciated.

And to the fans – thank you for being there, both in both good and bad times. I feel it is time to look for a new experience, to again provoke myself and continue to grow both on and off the field.

I have met wonderful people in this country and I will always have these memories with me.
