The former Lille, Liverpool and AC Milan striker confirmed the news on social media platform X: "My purpose in the game is fulfilled.

Liverpool lead race for Yan Diomande and not expected to exceed €100m package deal - reports
Liverpool are currently the most advanced club in the race for highly rated young talent Yan Diomande and are leading the way in concrete contacts for the player. According to Gianluigi Longari, Liverpool's recruitment team has been actively working on the deal and is closely monitoring the situation, while assessing the financial structure required to complete the transfer.
The truth about who we might buy as a new striker.
Our new attacker! Yan Diomande. Anthony Gordon. Kroupi Jr. Bradley Barcola. Bazoumana Toure. Nico Williams. Magnes Akliouche. Iliman Ndiaye. Etc.. What do they all have in common? Well except that they've all been linked to Liverpool they got nothing in common 🤷♂️ Some of them play as central strikers, some are wide players, some are goal scorers, some are more playmaker types, some are stronger on the defensive play, some likes to come deep to pick up the ball and progress it.
Moyes: 'Ask any Premier League manager in history, they will tell you the one club that gets all the decisions is Liverpool'
David Moyes has refuted claims from Arne Slot that Liverpool do not get decisions going their way. The Everton boss first praised Slot: "Absolutely. He has done a brilliant job. And I have got to say he is a really good coach – that is from a neutral point of view.
If Klopp had stayed one more season, do you think he would've won the league that Slot did?

Liverpool consider signing 2 wingers amid summer rebuild plans — reports
Liverpool are considering signing two wingers this summer as they aim to reshape their attack, Ben Jacobs reports. Mohamed Salah has announced his departure at the end of this season, while last summer's exit of Luis Diaz left a void that still has not been properly filled. Yan Diomande of RB Leipzig is among their key targets, even though the Bundesliga club has slapped a €100m price tag.
Your favorite memory of Mo
What’s your favourite moment involving Mo from his time at Liverpool? The first thing that springs to mind is him wearing the ‘Never Give Up’ shirt in that very match against Barcelona, where Liverpool staged an incredible comeback and won 4–0! Although this memory isn’t directly linked to Mo’s performance, for me personally it was a very powerful gesture on his part, and it summed up that match and those emotions.
Diogo Jota’s official biography set for English release with tributes from Van Dijk, Alisson, Klopp & more
Rute Cardoso, widow of the late Diogo Jota, has revealed that the official biography of the former Liverpool and Portugal forward will soon be available in English. She shared the exciting news on her Instagram account, posting a simple graphic of the book cover alongside a heartfelt caption confirming the translation is underway.
Is Dominik Szoboszlai right — could Liverpool actually drop to the Conference League?
Liverpool star Dominik Szoboszlai has issued a stark warning to his teammates after dropping points in recent games: “If we carry on like this, next season we should be happy if we play in the Conference League.” The Reds currently sit fifth in the Premier League, two points below Aston Villa and one point clear of Chelsea. Defensive fragility and poor recent form suggest Szoboszlai isn’t exaggerating.
Pep Guardiola: 'Liverpool always a tough opponent and a difficult stadium for Man City'
Pep Guardiola has praised Liverpool’s mentality and Anfield’s unique challenge ahead of Manchester City’s crucial Premier League trip to Merseyside this weekend, insisting the biggest games are decided more by mindset than talent. "They remain an exceptional team," began Pep. "A top class manager and an exceptional team, no doubt. I have tried to see how they have played lately, what we have to do, if we have to adjust something. But it is Anfield.
The rise of Curtis Jones!
The rise of Curtis Jones! Curtis Jones has always been easy to dislike and how many times haven't we heard lfc fans saying we must sell him?
'My thoughts continue to be with them': Arne Slot's touching tribute to Diogo Jota ahead of Wolves clash
Arne Slot has paid an emotional tribute to the late Diogo Jota in his matchday programme notes, extending thoughts to the forward's family during their first Christmas without him and to Wolves ahead of Saturday's Anfield meeting. The game marks the first encounter between Jota's two English clubs since his tragic passing, prompting heartfelt words from the Liverpool boss.
Why Salah's outburst is stupid, even if you're team 'Slot Out'
I know that many Liverpool fans are now supporting Mo Salah saying it's all Slot's incompetence as the manager that has led to this. I personally have never been a big fan of Arne Slot, as I prefer more exciting football than what he practises. Normally, you wouldn't care about ugly gameplay as long as it brings points and trophies but today, we see few points going into our bag and as for trophies, there's little hope we get anything.

FIRST-PERSON: A half-century of ministry
ALEXANDRIA, La. (BP) -- I made the decision to attend the 50-year reunion of my high school graduating class. As I read posts about the event on social media, I think everyone in the class may have had the same questions I do: (1) Where did all the time go? and (2) Who are all these senior citizens? I am passing/approaching the half-century mark in other areas as well. I preached my first sermon just over 50 years ago.
