Inter Miami’s former Barcelona and Spain midfielder Sergio Busquets has announced he will retire at the end of the Major League Soccer season.
The 37-year-old made 722 appearances for Barca between 2008 and 2023, winning nine LaLiga titles and the Champions League on three occasions.
At international level, he was capped 143 times and played a key role as Spain won the 2010 World Cup and Euro 2012.
He moved to the MLS two years ago and has made 105 appearances for Miami, playing alongside former Barcelona team-mates Lionel Messi, Jordi Alba and Luis Suarez.
“These will be my last months on the pitch. I’m retiring very happy, proud, fulfilled, and above all grateful,” Busquets said in a video on his Instagram page.
“A heartfelt thank you to everyone and to football for everything. You will always be a part of this beautiful story.”
