Football star Jérôme Boateng, a world champion, has decided to hang up his cleats and retire.
Jérôme Boateng, a German footballing legend, has announced his retirement from professional football. After a career spanning multiple years, Boateng has decided to hang up his boots and focus on a new chapter in his life – coaching.
Boateng, a native of Berlin, made his Bundesliga debut in January 2007 for Hertha BSC. His career took a significant turn in 2011 when he joined Bayern Munich, where he spent ten memorable years. During his tenure at Bayern, Boateng won nine German championships, two Champions League titles, and five DFB Cups, making him one of the most decorated players in the club's history.
One of Boateng's most significant career highlights came in 2014 when he was part of the German national team that won the World Cup. This victory, along with being named German Footballer of the Year in 2016, are moments he will cherish forever.
In August 2024, Boateng dissolved his contract in Linz, Austria, after just 14 competitive games for the club. Since leaving Munich in 2021, he has played for Olympique Lyon in France, US Salernitana in Italy, and most recently for LASK in Austria.
However, Boateng's career in football is now coming to an end. In a social media post, he expressed his gratitude for the opportunities he's had and the memories he's created. He found it enriching to work in a new environment again, and this experience has fueled his desire to continue his involvement in football.
After passing the B-license coaching course in a special training session of the Bavarian Football Association (BFV) in November 2024, Boateng has set his sights on becoming a professional football coach. He plans to obtain the A-license and start as an assistant coach at a club soon.
Boateng was nervous before the B-license coaching course exam, as he stated in a BFV statement. However, his passion for the game and his determination to learn and grow have carried him through.

As he embarks on a new journey as a coach, we wish him the best of luck and look forward to seeing his impact on the game.
