The time has come to retire for American star Alex Morgan. A true legend of women’s football, the 35-year-old footballer has announced on the social network X (formerly Twitter) that he is retiring from the sport. He will play his last game with San Diego Sunday night into Monday against North Carolina.
“I’m retiring,” she said, moved to tears, in her farewell video. I’m glad to finally be able to tell you. This decision takes time to develop and is not easy to make. But at the beginning of 2024, I have a deep feeling in my heart that this is my last time as a footballer. This sport has been a part of me for 30 years and it is one of the first things I really love. »
Delphine Cascarino’s partner in San Diego will end a remarkable career. During this, he played 233 matches with the United States, scored 123 goals, won two World Cups but also won gold and bronze medals at the Olympic Games. Above all, she has contributed a lot to the media role of women’s football and is one of the main stars of the discipline.
“I gave everything I could to this sport and what I got in return exceeded all my dreams,” he added. We deserve women’s sports to develop. I also gave everything as a mother to my daughter Charlie. The next day he came to me to tell me that he wanted to become a football player. This makes me very proud, not because I want him to play soccer, but because a little girl who is 4 years old can look this way. »
The former Olympique Lyonnais player also announced a happy event: “Charlie will become a big sister, I’m pregnant. It was unexpected but I was so happy! To me, family means everything. »
