Bekræftet: José Enrique stopper karrieren

Den 31-årige spanske back José Enrique bekræfter på sin instagram-profil, at han stopper sin aktive karriere med øjeblikkelig virkning. Stoppet kommer efter længere tids problemer med knæet, der har forhindret ham i at komme tilbage på sit bedste niveau. 

Enrique huskes nok af mange fans fra Premier League. Han spillede 127 kampe for Newcastle United, inden han i august 2011 blev hentet af Liverpool FC. Her nåede Enrique 99 kampe, inden han i foråret 2016 blev frigivet. 

Efter tiden i England skrev Enrique under på en aftale med Real Zaragoza i den næstbedste spanske række, hvor han har fået 27 kampe. 

Enriques sidste kamp var den 10. juni 2017, da han spillede for Zaragoza i et 2-1 nederlag mod Tenerife.
