Israel and Mallorca goalkeeper Dudu Aouate announces retirement

Israel and RCD Mallorca goalkeeper Dudu Aouate has announced his retirement from professional football after declaring that he has 'achieved all of his goals'.

With 78 international caps to his name and making 300 appearances in La Liga, Aouate is hanging up his gloves for both international and club football.

"I have mixed emotions as after many years on the pitch I retire today from football," the 36-year-old said.

"I've learned what top European football is about, playing at the Camp Nou and the Bernabeu."

Aouate will become Mallorca's new majority shareholder after an agreement was reached to purchase 53% of the shares from Serra Ferrer and Biel Cerda, according to Inside Spanish Football.
