Kramer made the announcement on social media
Former Borussia Mönchengladbach midfielder Christoph Kramer has announced his retirement from the UEFA Champions League. The 31-year-old made the announcement on social media, saying that he had decided to "hang up his boots" after 10 seasons in the competition. Kramer played for Borussia Mönchengladbach, Bayer Leverkusen and RB Leipzig in the Champions League, making a total of 37 appearances and scoring two goals. He was part of the Borussia Mönchengladbach team that reached the semi-finals of the competition in 2016-17.
Kramer's decision to retire from the Champions League comes after a difficult season for Borussia Mönchengladbach. The club finished 10th in the Bundesliga and failed to qualify for any European competition. Kramer made just 14 appearances for Borussia Mönchengladbach in all competitions last season, and he has not played a game since March.
Kramer's retirement from the Champions League is a blow to the competition. He was one of the most experienced and respected midfielders in the Bundesliga, and he will be missed by fans and players alike. However, Kramer is still only 31 years old, and he could still have a few good years left in him. It remains to be seen what the future holds for Kramer, but he is sure to be successful in whatever he does.
