Former Real Madrid and Porto defender Pepe has announced his retirement from football at the age of 41.

皇馬、波圖的前任後衛佩佩，在41歲時正式發布了他將在足球界退役的聲明。

The veteran defender left Porto earlier this summer before leading Portugal at Euro 2024, earning his 141th cap in the quarter-final defeat to France, and has now opted to call time on his career.

這位後防老將在帶葡萄牙國家隊打24年歐洲盃之前離開了波圖，截至被法國在八強賽擊倒，拿下了一百四十一次的隊長帶隊紀錄，而如今將在被徵召的職涯劃下休止符。

In an emotional 33-minute YouTube video, Pepe said: "I want to thank God for giving me the wisdom to be able to continue my journey. I can't help but thank all the presidents who bet on me and believed in me. All the employees of all the clubs I've been to, they are the soul and essence. And of the national team. All my teammates and coaches, who helped me grow and compete every day. All the fans, who are the soul of football.

在一支情緒飽滿的Youtube33分鐘影片中，佩佩表示：「我要感謝上帝，給予我繼續我的人生旅途的智慧。我能對所有願意賭我會有成就，並堅信著我會有所成的球隊主席們。所有我共事過的俱樂部職員，他們是貫穿其中的靈魂與元素。而關於國家隊，我的所有隊友與教練，幫助我每天的成長與更完滿。還有作為足球的靈魂，所有的球迷們。」

"To Jorge Mendes, to Gestifute, to my mother, who was essential in my journey by letting me fly towards my dream, which was to be a professional footballer. To all my friends and family, especially my wife, who was my home in my absence. My children for believing in me, for being a fundamental support in my life, for supporting me when I left home to play. They were the support I needed to be able to go with a clear conscience. I would like to thank everyone, give them a big thank you and a big hug of gratitude. Thank you all very much."

「要對若熱門德斯(經紀人)、要對古斯塔菲(經紀公司)、對我的母親，他們是我的人生征途中，讓我能翱翔到我的夢想，成為一個專業足球員的最基本原因。我要對我的朋友與家人們，特別是我的太太致謝，在我缺席家庭角色時，她就是我的家。我的孩子對我的信任，成為了我人生中當我離家比賽時，帶給我支持很根基的支柱。他們支撐著我讓我知道要能有著純然的良心做事。我要感恩大家，給眾人一個大大的感謝、跟充滿感激的擁抱，非常謝謝你們。」

Pepe came through the academy at Maritimo before making his name with Porto and earning himself a big-money move to Real Madrid in 2007. He'd spend ten years at the Santiago Bernabeu, playing 334 games and winning three La Liga titles and three Champions Leagues.

佩佩在波圖聲名大噪並為自己在2007年贏得一紙大錢的皇馬合約前，在Maritimo的青訓學院。她在聖地亞哥伯納塢球場花上了十年光陰，出賽了334場比賽，並贏得了三座西甲與三座歐冠獎盃。

"At the end of his football career, Pepe leaves us with an example of professionalism, dedication and, above all, an enormous passion for football and the National Team," Portuguese Football Federation president Fernando Gomes said in a statement.

「在他職業生涯的最後，佩佩留給我們一個無私的、專業者的典範，並且更重要的是，對於足球與國家的豐沛熱情，」葡萄牙足總主席費南多哥梅茲在聲明中表示。

"Pepe is an example of extraordinary professionalism. I remember well how he participated in the Euro 2016 final, or how he played with a broken arm in the match against Morocco in the World Cup in Qatar and how he performed, at 41 years old, with the same passion, dedication and pride at EURO 2024.

「佩佩是超凡專業者的典範。我還很牢記16年歐洲盃決賽他的參與程度，或是拖著斷掉的手臂在卡達世界盃對戰摩洛哥並且他的表現。而在41歲的年紀，帶著不變的熱情、無私與傲氣在24年歐洲盃展現。」

"At this time when Pepe has decided to end his football career, I cannot, as president of the FPF, fail to thank him for these 17 years serving the national team.

「而在佩佩宣布要告別足壇的此時此刻，我作為葡足總主席，我無法表示這十七年他報效國家隊兵馬倥傯的生涯我是何其感激。」

"Pepe has always expressed his gratitude to the National Team and to Portugal for the opportunity given to him to establish himself as one of the greatest central defenders in the history of Portuguese, European and world football."

「佩佩對國家隊與葡萄牙，願意給他展現自己是葡萄牙、歐洲到世界足壇的歷史最佳中後衛之一，總是不吝表達感激。」
