He has not featured since the opening day loss to Roma
Former Bayern Munich and France winger Franck Ribery has officially announced his retirement from football.
The 39-year-old has terminated his contract with Serie A side Salernitana after struggling with a knee injury. Mozzart Sport Kenya recently reported on the subject when the rumours of Ribery's retirement spread worldwide.
"The ball stops, the feelings do not. Thanks to everyone for this great adventure," said Ribery on Twitter.
Ribery joined Fiorentina before moving to Salernitana last summer, helping the club avoid relegation by one point, but he has not featured since the opening-day loss to Roma.
The ball stops. The feelings inside me do not. ✨

Der Ball ruht. Die Gefühle in mir nicht. ✨
Le ballon s’arrette mais pas mes sentiments pour lui. ✨
Il pallone si ferma. Le emozioni dentro di me, no. ✨
Thanks to everyone for this great adventure. 🙏🏼#FR7 #Elhamdoulillah pic.twitter.com/Ku4i1MeEbE
'The Scarface' 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 Frenchman joined Bayern for £17m from Marseille in June 2007, a year after being part of the France side that finished runner-up to Italy at the 2006 World Cup.
