He doesn’t get tired: at 44, Loco Abreu signs for Athletic de Minas Gerais | Football24 News English

Sebastian Abreu does not get tired. Already broke the Guinness record as the footballer who has represented the most clubs, but now he’s going for more.

The Uruguayan forward, 44, signed with the Athletic Club of Minas Gerais, who just ascended to the Brazilian Mineiro 1 Championship after a 50-year absence.

Abreu, who comes from being a coach and player of the Boston River Uruguay, also passed through Chile and defended Puerto Montt, Audax Italiano and Magallanes.

The former Uruguayan national team arrives in good physical condition, despite his age, according to the coach of his new club Fabio Mineiro.

“I went to Uruguay, he is very well physically, he takes care of himself. I saw him two games there in the Uruguayan first division. He is a guy who is an example and will bring a lot of return. He will help on the field, even at this age, if he fits the Athletic profile. He is very professional, and he will also help make the Athletic brand grow internationally, “he said.

It will be the 30th club that Abreu defends globally, although only 28 are counted for the Guinness Record, because on this occasion and in his previous visit to Rio Branco de Vitoria, they were teams that dispute state and non-national competitions.

These are the other 28 teams he played for: Defensor Sporting, San Lorenzo, Deportivo La Coruña, Gremio, Tecos, Nacional, Cruz Azul, America, Dorados, Monterrey, San Luis, Tigres, River Plate, Beitar Jerusalem, Real Sociedad, Aris Salónica, Botafogo, Figueirense, Rosario Central, Aucas , Sol de América, Santa Tecla, Bangú, Central Español, Puerto Montt, Audax Italiano, Magallanes and Boston River.
