Cristiano Piccini (Florence, born on September 26, 1992) announced his retirement. The Italian right-back made the announcement this Sunday, officially ending his football career. Betis and Valencia are two clubs that he has made great memories, especially at the Mestalia Stadium.

Picini, who is about to be 33, ended her career early due to injury problems. He has long been unable to enjoy the game. A few months ago, he said on social media that he needed to “reflect”. After the last adventure of the Swiss League, Picini officially announced his retirement.

Picini was from Florence youth training and joined Betis after a brief period in Livorno. As a member of Betis, he made 58 appearances in three seasons. He then transferred to Portugal Sports. In the 2018/2019 season, he was signed by Valencia. In his first season, he won the King's Cup with the team.

Although injuries affected his performance in Mestalia, people were impressed by his dedication and dedication. He made 51 appearances for Valencia, most memorable at the end of the game against Huesca.

Although Piccini keeps trying, everything is different. Later in his career, he also played for Belgrade Red Star (Serbia), Magdeburg (Germany), Sampdoria (Italy), Athletic St. Louis (Mexico) and Iverdon (Switzerland).
