evalagoal Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Just read this Karembeu calls it quits French World Cup winner Christian Karembeu on Thursday announced his retirement from football. The 34-year-old, who was part of France's 1998 World Cup winning team, told RMC radio: "I've decided it's time to stop, although I'll be having a kickabout from time to time." Karembeu, a native of the French overseas territory of New Caledonia in the Pacific, failed to sign with a new club following his departure from French side Bastia in June after the club was relegated to the second division. He added: "I've no regrets, it's a decision I've thought long and hard about. I just want to try something else." Karembeu first emerged at Nantes as a defender at the start of the 1990s before joining Italian side Sampdoria. He also had spells at Real Madrid and Olympiakos among other clubs. He won 53 caps as a France international and scored one goal, in October 1995 in a 3-1 win against Romania Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
