At 35, Daniel Opare has decided to hang up his boots. The Ghanaian right-back is retiring after shining for many years on European pitches.

It's the end of an era for Daniel Opare. The Accra-born defender is part of Ghana's golden generation, Ghana having lifted the 2009 U20 World Cup alongside André Ayew.

Capped 19 times for Ghana, he featured at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil with the Black Stars, playing in the group stage defeat to the United States (1-2).

He made his debut with Ashanti Gold in Ghana before a brief stint at CS Sfaxien in Tunisia. In 2008, he made the leap to Europe.

The defender played in several countries, including Spain with Real Madrid C and RM Castilla, Portugal with FC Porto, Belgium at Standard Liège, Royal Antwerp, Zulte Waregem, and RFC Seraing, France with RC Lens, Turkey with Besiktas, and Germany with Augsburg.
