Walter Samuel says; enough. The 37 year old Argentine defender who was a main player in the 2001 Roma scudetto winning team and the 2010 Triplete winning Inter team now announces that he retires after this season. “
The Wall” currently plays for Basel and are facing Fiorentina in the Europa League. In an interview with Neue Zürcher Zeitung Samuel says;
“There comes a time when you need to become aware of your own body. If everything hurts, even the mind starts to get tired. I still want to play but I have physical difficulties, I need more time to recover. My younger teammates are back in shape the day after a game. I need 2-3 days. But it is not an easy decision, not at all.”
