Mahendra Singh Dhoni, one of the successful captains of the Indian cricket team, shared a video on his social media post in the year 2021 and announced his retirement from international cricket. His fans were quite surprised by Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s sudden decision to retire.

The Milan team had already said that a special ceremony would be held to bid farewell to the 41-year-old Swede Ibrahimovic after the match against Hellas Verona. Ibrahimovic revealed in the post-match press conference that no one was aware of the news of his retirement.

 

“Even my family didn’t know because I wanted everyone to hear it together when I made the announcement,” he said. His colleagues gave him a ‘guard of honour’.

 

Ibrahimovic could not hold back his tears and told his teammates, “The time has come to say goodbye to football but not you.” Ibrahimovic scored 93 goals in 163 matches for Milan. He joined the team for the second time in January 2020 and won his second Serie A title with the team last year.

Apart from Milan, Ibrahimovic has been part of teams like Paris Saint-Germain, Inter Milan, Barcelona, ​​Juventus and Ajax. He started his career with local club Malmö. Ibrahimovic scored 62 goals in 122 matches for Sweden.
