Retirement: Adailton dos Santos Filho Retires After 15-Year Career
Stone Sports Management LLC (Columbus, Ohio) - March 1, 2017
Stone Sports Management LLC ("SSM") would like to recognize Brazilian defender Adailton dos Santos Filho's fantatsic career as he announces his retirment with Miami FC. The 33 year-old Brazilian entered his second year with the NASL franchise after signing in February 2016 and decided to hang up the boots due to physical limitations. Adailton first came to the United States when he signed with the Chicago Fire after spanning the globe playing for top divisions in Brazil, France, Switzerland and China.
"This is a bittersweet day because Adailton loves football and being around the game," reflected SSM's President and USSF Licensed Intermediary Justin B. Stone. "I am honored to call Adailton a friend and gained his trust to negotiate his final two contracts with MLS (Chicago Fire) and Miami FC. I want to thank Miami FC for their understanding and admiration for Adailton. He has touched many lives with his fantatsic character and empathy for others. I am confident that he will transition these qualities into a new role within the game and have an even greater impact that his fantatstic career!"
Thank you Adailton and all the best to you and your familyin retirement! SSM looks forward to "keeping in touch!"
