The moment that no footballer can avoid happened. After 18 years in which football gave me so much, I put an end to my career this summer,&#8221; said Mats Hummels. Passed by the youth teams of Bayern Munich from 1995, Hummels became a professional in the Munich club, and evolved during his career between Bayern and Borussia Dortmund, before trying this season an experience in Italy at AS Rome. Central defender, he put on the jersey of the German selection for the first time on May 13, 2010 at 21 and has 78 CAPES (the last on November 21, 2023). He participated in the German triumph at the World Cup in Brazil in 2014, notably scored the goal of victory in the quarter-finals against France (1-0).<\/p>\n<p>More information here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"article_378414\">\n<p><time datetime=\"2025-04-04T15:11:52+02:00\">15h11<\/time><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"live_block_title\">What future for De Bruyne after leaving Manchester City?<\/h2>\n<div class=\"content_post\">\n<p>Kevin de Bruyne formalized this Friday his departure from Manchester City at the end of the season.
