Real Madrid members are heartbroken this Tuesday evening. One of Castilla's great hopes, Marc Cucalon, has announced the end of his professional career at just 19 years old. Arriving in 2016, he was one of the club's great hopes and was even playing in the Youth League in 2022 when he ruptured his cruciate ligaments. The resulting operation went badly, and the complications never allowed him to consider returning to football. Two years of treatment later, the man who was captain of the Real Madrid youth teams decided to give up everything due to the impossibility of returning to his best level.
A backpack full of dreams
« I arrived at Real Madrid with a backpack full of dreams. My life changed on September 6, 2022 when I was seriously injured. After several complications, this injury finally forced me to make the decision to say goodbye to football, at least in the way I dreamed of playing it. I still think I was privileged to have been able to be part of the best club in the world and to have lived this dream. I think I learned a lot and grew as a player and as a man », Delivered the one who played in the midfielder position.
