Former Napoli star Ezequiel Lavezzi admits retirement close

Former Napoli and PSG star Ezequiel Lavezzi admits he is considering retirement.

The Argentine, now 34, is coming off contract at Hebei China Fortune.

He said, “It could because this could be the last game of my career," he replied when asked after the game if he would remember the goal he scored against Evergrande.

“If so, I'll surely remember it. As for whether I'll retire, I think so. I really want to enjoy having my children and family around, so I think it's the right time.

“During the [Christmas] holidays I'll think about it a bit more, but it's a decision I've almost taken."
