Unemployed for a year, their careers seem to have come to an end.
Those soccer stars who have been idle for a year, in the summer transfer window, will continue to wait for a good opportunity, or choose to retire? With Kessie's announcement to join Barcelona, all 11 players signed by AC Milan in the summer of 2017 for more than 100 million euros have left the team, and as the first signing of the "Li era", La Liga's best center back Musacchio ceased to be a member of the Red and Black Army as early as last January. The Argentine, although he had a good early season, was unlucky: he was injured by Kessie and suffered from chronic calf pain due to the suspension of Serie A as a result of the new Champions League outbreak. He had refused to be substituted before leaving the team, and his relationship with Milan had long been in name only.
In a Lazio team full of veterans, Musacchio seemed to have caught the team's twilight, with a missed return and an unnecessary red card making his six-month stint as a Blue Eagle not a good one. His contract expired without being renewed, which was expected. Over the course of the year, the Argentine has been rumored to be signing with Real Betis and Genoa, but the latest team to offer him has been relegated to Botafogo in the Barclays Premier League. After all, the Argentine's unknown injuries and unwillingness to play on the bench have forced any potential owners to think twice.
Four years ago at the World Cup in Russia, dos Santos is no longer the main force of the Mexican national team, but the No. 10 jersey still belongs to the former golden boy. Now, only four months from the World Cup in Qatar, the former "Chosen One" but basically to say goodbye to Asia. Last year with the Mexican Premier League Americas team terminated the contract so far, dos Santos is still at home idle.
Like Dos Santos, Dos Santos has been plagued by injuries throughout his career. During his time with the Americas, the biggest news he made wasn't spectacular crosses and goals, but a piece of flesh gouged out of his thigh by an opposing player's cleat. When former Real Madrid boss Solari took over at America's team, Dos Santos fell out of favor with more injuries and an egotistical style of play. Last summer, dos Santos's father, former Brazilian international footballer Zizinho unfortunately infected with a new crown died, but also to the former golden boy has brought a huge blow, both physically and mentally under the exhaustion of the Mexican winger over the years to fight again in the jungle, there is no power to speak of.
What is the biggest embarrassment in life? Maybe it's when your former teammates make history, but you've already retired. 33-year-old Wales striker Robson Kanu may be regretting his decision to quit the national team. After all, since last year, the "Red Dragons" first reached the knockout stage of the European Cup, and then returned to the World Cup in a historic way. Robson Kanu, who thought he had reached the pinnacle of his life when he quit the team, never imagined that there were still two peaks in front of him.
Of course, Robson-Kanu's 'early retirement' was a direct result of him being sent off after breaking quarantine rules (or curfew rules, according to some media reports) during a training session with the Welsh squad. After five years at West Bromwich, the Welshman lacked a presence at the club and didn't score a double in a single season in the Championship until the 2019-20 season, and it was inevitable that the two sides would part ways after his contract expired last summer. A year on the sidelines so far, Robson-Kanu has not received any offers - after all, the 33-year-old is a bit of an anachronism in the newcomer's Championship.
From the iron man to the sick kid, just one season. 2019-20 season, due to injury only 11 appearances Asamoah, unceremoniously by Inter into another book, the hand is not generous blue and black legion, rather than lose 1.5 million euros severance pay, but also to stop the loss in time. In to Reading, Sampdoria, Montreal Impact and other teams to ask for millions of annual salary unsuccessful, until the following year before the winter window closes, Asamoah and Cagliari short six months, the end of up to a few months of "abandonment". However, the trip to Sardinia for the Ghanaian, the same nightmare. Although Asamoah made his 250th Serie A start, he was sent off at the end of the season, leaving only nine appearances on his record.
Asamoah celebrated his 33rd birthday in December last year, Juve still did not forget to bless the old general on social media, but from 2020 will no longer be called up by the Ghanaian national team, and now the cartilage injury of the knee is doubtful Asamoah, the stock in the tank is really doubtful, and with the practice of the general state of the African players who are getting older and then rapidly decline, the Ghanaian wants to end the idle is really difficult.
Six years ago, he was still the main gun under Conte, six years later, he can only rely on the beautiful lover to barely maintain the sense of existence. After earning the biggest bucket of gold in the Chinese Super League, Pelé, who is a double winner in the field of love, finally ended his long love affair with Varga this summer and officially entered the marriage hall. However, the groom's job description, I'm afraid, will make the officiant difficult - since last summer and Parma parted ways so far, Pelé has been in a state of inactivity.
After leaving Shandong Luneng, Pelé chose the relegation situation of Parma, as his return to the motherland landing place. However, this door in the Chinese Super League mighty "Italian gun", back to his hometown but dumb fire, Serie A appearance 13 times but only in the home and Genoa battle in the gun once. Since the idle, Pelé is not lack of job opportunities, the mother team Lecce has been eagerly waiting for the return of the wandering son, the loss of center Zapata Atalanta, also considered giving Pelé a short contract, but in the end, the social media is almost all in the and Varga spreading dog food Pelé, did not take the trick - after all, life is so beautiful, still need to think about soccer?
As an important bench player in the MSN era, the Brazilian defender Adriano, who can play both sides of the road, ended the six years of red and blue years, but ushered in an unexpected "overturned": the Brazilian who turned to the Turkish Super League Besiktas not only failed to use the experience of the "technology to alleviate poverty! "Instead of using experience to "technical poverty alleviation", but by the Spanish tax authorities to find the door, the protracted lawsuit, so that the Brazilian physical and mental fatigue, the state is also deteriorating. In the end, after paying a large fine, Adriano was able to avoid jail time. During this period, there were rumors that he would join his former Barcelona teammate Iniesta at the J-League's top team, Kobe Victory, but nothing came of it.
After leaving Turkey in 2019, Adriano also stopped changing his social media, and after bouncing around low-profile with Atletico Parana in the Barclays Premier League and Auburn in Belgium, the Brazilian, who was celebrating his third natal year, was still unemployed last summer. Now that he's getting closer to 40, there's not much time left for Adriano to play.
