BRAZIL World Cup winner Roberto Carlos has officially retired from football, the manager of Russian outfit Anzhi Makhachkala, where he was playing, has said.
Team manager Guus Hiddink confirmed the left-back's retirement in Moscow on Wednesday.
"Roberto was a world class football player. Unfortunately, he no longer plays. Every master's career ends at some point," he said.
"However, Roberto is now fully involved in developing the new Anzhi. I am sure he will contribute to the growth of not only the Dagestani club but all of Russian football."
In domestic football, Carlos twice won the Brazilian championship with Palmeiras, while at Real Madrid he won four Spanish as well as three Champions League titles.
