Cano rules out retirement and sends message: “My story isn’t over yet”

Striker Germán Cano used social media to rule out any possibility of retirement at this time. At 38, the number 14 for Fluminense posted a message saying he remains motivated to keep playing and still has goals to achieve in his career.

The statement came after comments about a possible final stretch of his career on the pitch, a topic that has gained traction in recent months due to the player’s age and the physical issues he has faced in recent seasons.

— I hear many people saying that the time has come for me to retire. I respect that, because football always generates opinions. But I want to say something: I still have the same passion, the same desire to compete, and the same commitment as always — the striker wrote.

In the post, Cano highlighted that he has overcome difficult moments throughout his career and said he remains motivated to keep helping Fluminense on the field.

— Football has taught me that limits are often in my mind. I have gone through difficult moments, injuries, and challenges, and I have always found the strength to come back. Today is no different. I feel that I have much more to offer on the field. As long as I have dreams, something to improve, and the desire to help my team, I will keep fighting to do what I love most — he added.

The Argentine ended the message by reinforcing that he still intends to write new chapters in his journey in football.

— My story is not over yet. FAZ O L! ❤️💚 — he concluded.

Cano is under contract with Fluminense until the end of 2026. At the moment, there are no ongoing negotiations for a contract renewal. Even so, the striker’s post makes it clear that retirement is not part of the Tricolor idol’s immediate plans, as he remains focused on the rest of the season.
