Retired Portuguese footballer Luis Figo has arrived in Croatia for a holiday.
Figo (44), is staying in on the Dalmatian coast in the Zadar region and on Tuesday was photographed enjoying his time at Portus Beach Club in D-Marin Dalmacija in Sukošan.
“We are happy that football legend Luis Figo is enjoying his time in Portus Beach Club in D-Marin Dalmacija,” D-Marin Dalmacija wrote after posting a photo of Figo at the Portus Beach Club on Tuesday.
It is not Figo’s first time in Croatia – back in 2013 he was a guest speaker at the Croatia Sports Conference in Zagreb.
The midfielder, who retired in 2009, won 127 caps for the Portugal national team, a record at the time, and played his club football for Sporting CP, Barcelona, Real Madrid and Inter Milan.
Figo is regarded as one of the greatest players of his generation. His 106 assists are the second-most in La Liga history, and he won the 2000 Ballon d’Or, 2001 FIFA World Player of the Year, and in 2004 Pelé named him in the FIFA 100 list of the world’s greatest living players.
