vCash: 480 | Elber to retire Former Brazilian international striker Giovane Elber, currently playing with Cruzeiro de Belo Horizonte, will retire at the end of December because of chronic pain in his right ankle. "I feel its now the time to stop," said the former Bayern Munich and Lyon player, now 34 years old. "I feel a chronic pain that annoys me a lot and prevents me from improving my fitness. So I want to give the time thats left to me to lead the club to the Libertadores Cup," said Elber, the most successful foreigner in Bundesliga history after scoring 133 goals in 256 matches for Bayern Munich. Elber underwent ankle surgery on his right ankle in 2004 when at reigning French champions Lyon. |
