Christine Sinclair published a video on her Instagram account on Thursday evening of a pair of crampons hanging from a pole. The very short video then shows the maple leaf, Sinclair’s number and his signature. Images which suggest that the time for retirement has come for the international legend…

Sinclair’s status with the women’s national team has been at the heart of news in the soccer world in recent days. “That’s the question that’s on everyone’s mind,” Canada head coach Bev Priestman said on Wednesday.

Sinclair, the most prolific striker in history, has been recalled for the two friendly matches against Brazil, which will be played in Montreal and Halifax on October 28 and 31.

“What I can confirm is that she is selected and available for this camp,” Priestman said. We had confidential conversations about his future. I don’t think it’s my place to communicate the details. »

Since the Instagram post is very vague, it’s impossible to know when exactly the 40-year-old plans to hang up his cleats. Will she take part in the last two matches with the Canadian team? To be continued.
