HIS TIME IS DONE 🧤

Portuguese GK Rui Patricio has called time on his career between the sticks at the age of 37 🤝🏽

Rui had an outstanding career playing across Europe and being key to his nations relatively recent international successes 🇵🇹

An unusual stand out was his time in England in which he played his football at Wolves. Squad number 1 wasn’t available when he made the move to the Premier League so he instead choose Number 11. A unique choice for sure 🤣

Congratulations on a great career Rui👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
