PARIS: Former Bayern Munich and France winger Franck Ribery has announced his retirement from football.
The 39-year-old has terminated his contract with Serie A side Salernitana after struggling with a knee issue.
He scored 124 goals and contributed 182 assists in 425 games for Bayern from 2007-2019, winning the Champions League in 2013 and nine Bundesliga titles.
“The ball stops, the feelings do not. Thanks to everyone for this great adventure,” Ribery wrote on Twitter.
