Posted on | May 15, 2012 | No Comments

Ruud van Nistelrooy announced that he is going to retire from football. The 35 years old forward was a real goalscoring machine and won the top scorer award in three different leagues.

His best moments were at Manchester United where he scored 150 goals in 219 games in five seasons. He could probably end his career at Manchester United but a dispute with Sir Alex Ferguson made him leave the club for Real Madrid.

Nistelrooy made his debut in style also at Real Madrid where he won the title and was the Primera Division top scorer in the first year.

The Dutch international is considered one of the best football players in the history and  the fans will always remember him as one of the greats.
