A world champion in France has announced his retirement

Date:

Blaise Matuidi, world champion in 2018 with the French team, announced this Friday through social networks the end of his professional career at the age of 35.

The former midfielder did not play for Inter Miami, his last club, for more than a year, which was not included in the list of registered players for the 2022 MLS season, the United States League.

The undisputed holder of the French team in the successful 2018 World Cup in Russia, Matuidi rose through the ranks during his career at Troyes (2004-2007), Saint-Étienne (2007-2011), Paris Saint -Germain (2011-2017) and Juventus (2017-2020).

A list of winners with 21 titles

His record includes 21 titles, among which, in addition to the 2018 World Cup, are four Ligue 1 with PSG (2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2018) and three ‘scudettos’ with Juventus (2018, 2019, 2020). He was also a finalist at Euro 2016 with the French team, which as hosts lost in the final against Portugal (1-0).

“I had the opportunity to play for the biggest clubs in Europe, to wear the national team shirt, to make my family tremble, to live from my passion and these are the images that will stay with me,” Matuidi, author of nine goals in 84 games defending his country’s shirt between 2010 and 2019.

The left-footed midfielder, who earned the nickname ‘three lungs’ for his physical strength and attitude, went to Qatar to support the French team in the final days of the World Cup before Argentina lost on penalties in the final. .
