JAKARTA - Former Belgian national team player Marouane Fellaini announced on Saturday that he decided to retire three months after his contract at Chinese club Shandong Taishan expired.
"I am writing this to announce that after a career of 18 years, I have resigned from professional football," the 36-year-old wrote via his official Instagram account, quoted by Antara.
Fellaini made his professional debut at Standard Liege in 2006 before moving to Everton for a transfer value of 20 million euros. At that time, Fellaini's transfer value made him the most expensive player in the history of Belgian football.
After stealing the attention of TheToffeees fans, Fellaini then followed coach David Moyes to move to Manchester United in 2013.
